An accident involving three cars near the Dnata Centre on Sheikh Zayed Road has caused a long tailback on road traffic towards Sharjah.

An eyewitness told Emirates 24|7 that three cars were involved in the pile-up and emergency teams from civil defence and police were working near the Shangri La Hotel to clear the cars from the road.

“Traffic movement has almost come to a standstill after the accident,” the eyewitness said.

It is not immediately known if there were any casualties in the accident that happened around 3:30pm.

However it is quite certain that accident will continue to slow down traffic movement for quite some time since it is the evening rush hour of motorists returning home.
