Marathon Road Closure Permit Dubai – Event Road Safety by HMJ

Organising a marathon, half-marathon, or running event in Dubai that uses public roads requires a formal road closure permit from the RTA, a comprehensive traffic management plan, and coordination with Dubai Police. The event route must be safe for participants, and the surrounding road network must continue to function for non-event traffic. HMJ Contracting manages marathon road closure permits and event traffic management in Dubai. Call +971 50 778 9046.

What a Marathon Road Closure Involves

• Full or partial road closures along the race route for the event duration
• Diversion plans for all affected roads to keep non-event traffic moving
• TMA vehicles and crash cushions where the route runs alongside live traffic
• Barriers at all closure points and route crossings
• Traffic marshals at key junctions and pedestrian crossings
• Emergency vehicle access maintained throughout the event

RTA and Police Coordination

Marathon permits require coordination between the RTA, Dubai Police, and the event organiser. HMJ manages the RTA permit application through the event permit in ROW process and coordinates with all relevant authorities. See our RTA crowd management page and event traffic management service.
