Motorists have been warned of delays on Friday due to the UAE World Tour Expo 2020 Dubai stage.

Diversions will be in place in the emirate on February 25 from 12pm until 4.30pm.

Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) shared a notice warning of the delays on its social media pages.

“(There are) Expected delays on the routes of UAE World Tour Expo 2020 Dubai Stage on Friday February 25, 2022, from 12 PM until 4:30 PM,” read a tweet from the RTA.

“Please use the alternative roads to easily reach your destination.”

Friday’s leg of the race will start and finish at the Expo 2020 Dubai site.

“On February 25, Expo 2020 Dubai will become the focal point of the cycling world as the sixth stage of the 2022 UAE Tour – the one and only UCI WorldTour race in the Middle East – starts and finishes at the Expo," said Secretary General of Dubai Sports Council Saeed Hareb previously.

Who was Alfred Nobel?

The Nobel Prize was created by wealthy Swedish chemist and entrepreneur Alfred Nobel.

  • In his will he dictated that the bulk of his estate should be used to fund "prizes to those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind".
  • Nobel is best known as the inventor of dynamite, but also wrote poetry and drama and could speak Russian, French, English and German by the age of 17. The five original prize categories reflect the interests closest to his heart.
  • Nobel died in 1896 but it took until 1901, following a legal battle over his will, before the first prizes were awarded.
