Dubai commuters could soon see their journey times cut from 24 minutes to just five. That will be the result of Hessa Street Development Project Phase 2, one of Dubai's latest major road upgrades.

According to the Dubai Health Authority, the emirate now has over 4,000 licensed healthcare facilities, including hospitals, day-surgery centres and specialised clinics, and more than 50,000 licensed healthcare professionals operating across the system. So we’ve got more providers, more patients, more demand, and that growth inevitably feeds into insurance pricing. So what does that mean for you when your renewal notice lands in your inbox?

We’re also looking ahead to the Eid break, why Ramadan is becoming a key driver for halal travel.
