Description

In earlier years, Salam Street used to end at the intersection with Saada Street (Shakhbout Bin Sultan Street). It as then extended to the end of Abu Dhabi Island and it the turns to end at an intersection with Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street and to intersect with Old Airport Road (Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Street) on the way. That turn has been built but is considered as a mere exit from Salam Street instead of an extension.[citation needed]

In 2012, the Sheikh Zayed Tunnel opens to the public after five years of construction. The tunnel is located under Salam Street and stretches for 2.4km from Sheikh Fatima Bint Mubarak Street (formerly Delma Street) to the Corniche or Mina Road.[3]
