More thanAED1.5 million has been spent in Sharjah on road fencing to reduce the amount of accidents where individuals are being run-over.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the last year, 50 people died in a series of car-related incidents resulting in Sharjah’s Roads and Transport Authorities to implement this new project.<\/p>\n

Fences have been built around areas that are known for being filled with pedestrians such as Al Zahraa Street, Al Khan Street and Al Shahba.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They were constructed over the summer<\/h3>\n

The construction of the road fences took place throughout the summer as well as the maintenance of many other roads which costed AED6.22 million.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Offences<\/h3>\n

Crossing the street from undesignated points can result pedestrians in a hefty fine as well as costing them their life.<\/p>\n

Sharjah Police recorded over 11,000 fines for jaywalking.<\/p>\n

Committing this crime not only just resulted the death of 50 people, but 22 more have been injured, and 163 have experienced minor injuries.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

To all pedestrians: Remember to look both sides while crossing the street. #StaySafe<\/a><\/p>\n
