Download Dubai's traffic cam videos

dazz · October 17th, 2004, 11:33 PM

I have made some traffic videos by combining Dubai Municipality's webcam pictures, I hope that you'll like these

Notice that the time isn't steady because sometimes the time between pictures can vary from 30min to longer than 1min, but nevertheless you get general idea about traffic in Dubai.

it's amazing to see how fast the day will turn into night, it take like 15-20minutes, something that doesn't happen here in Finland

Dubai-Lover · October 17th, 2004, 11:41 PM

great work

this reminds of the hell i have to go through direction shindagah tunnel

Dubai-Lover · October 17th, 2004, 11:45 PM

btw: the cam located at hyatt regency junction is right above our window

very interesting to see the traffic from up there
would be nice if you could make a movie about this cam next
would remind me of my second home, exactly the same view

and my dads just sleeping 10m away from this

view from cam

view from our apartment, look at the bus blocking the junction, it still is nothing compared to 8pm and later!!!!!!
all the traffic from falcon junction is coming right here, 2km away!

you can also see the skyline from our apartment very well, love this place

yes, it's a very nice place, just the view on port rashid and the big sand parking lot is a bit disturbing. but a great view towards skyline, palm deira, corniche redevelopment,...
unfortunately we'll move to al bada next feb

and i'm still sitting in this COW TOWN öhringen

the skyline at night from our apartment

or at dusk

Behind Al Dheyafah Street.

juiced · October 18th, 2004, 02:30 PM

Is it a big housing compound? Never heard of it

Dubai-Lover · October 18th, 2004, 03:08 PM

there's a brown 3 floor low-rise
the building is right next to the new shaikha shakha al bada complex

dazz · October 18th, 2004, 04:25 PM

look closely that hayatt regency video at 18:05 , in the right lower corner, huge amount of people coming there and crossing the road, half of the people don't even cross the road in the right place

Trances · October 18th, 2004, 04:57 PM

this is why you hear an iiiiiiiiiiieeeeeech quite often

once a week a pedestrian is hit by a car here and they sometimes are hurled to the middle of the junction

not joking!

something happens here every day. one night there was a huge crash in al shindagah tunnel. the sirens of police and ambulance didn't stop. i opened the window and looked what happened. many cars had to turn around and drove back the wrong way, because the street was blocked. road was closed by police.

and you won't believe it, but some guys just wanted to drive through the road block!!!!

i enjoyed the show from 1am till 5am

so many crazy guys there
