E 44 road (United Arab Emirates)

E 44 (Arabic: إ ٤٤) is one of the main roads of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The road connects the city of Dubai to the town of Hatta, an exclave of the emirate of Dubai. E 44 assumes multiple names; in Dubai, the road is named Al Khail Road, between E 311 and D 68, Ras al Khor Road between D 68 and E 311, Al Aweer Road between E 311 and E 77, and Dubai-Hatta Highway for the rest of the road.[1] E 44 is disconnected in Al Madam by Al Rawdah region of Oman; the road reconnects in Masfout, runs to Hatta and ends in at Hatta Border Crossing .[2] In February 2024, the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) awarded a contract worth Dh700 million for significant upgrades on Al Khail Road. This project entails the construction of bridges totaling 3,300 meters in length and road enhancements over a distance of 6,820 meters across seven locations, including Zabeel, Meydan, Al Quoz 1, Ghadeer Al Tair, and Jumeirah Village Circle.[1]
