What Is a Traffic Diversion in Dubai?
A traffic diversion is the planned rerouting of vehicles away from a temporarily closed or restricted section of road. In Dubai, any diversion affecting a public road requires a formal road closure permit and an approved road diversion plan from the RTA before the closure can begin.

Diversion Route Planning
HMJ assesses the affected road, identifies safe alternative routes, and designs a diversion scheme that minimises disruption. We consider traffic volumes, junction capacity, pedestrian access, and emergency vehicle routes when planning every diversion.
RTA Approval and NOC
We prepare all required drawings to RTA standard and manage the complete NOC application process. Submissions are prepared correctly first time to avoid delays.
Physical Diversion Implementation
Once approved, HMJ deploys all required advance warning signs, lane closed signs, diversion direction signs, barriers, and cones in line with the approved drawings. TMA rental and crash cushion rental are included for active closure points.
Major and Minor Road Diversions
HMJ handles both major road diversions on arterial and highway routes and minor road diversions on local and residential streets.
Event Traffic Diversions
Marathons, cycling events, and public celebrations in Dubai require carefully planned diversions that keep event participants and regular road users safe simultaneously. See our event traffic management service.
