Ajman Police Deploy 116 Patrols for National Day: A Safety Guarantee for Celebrations

What’s Behind the 116-Patrol Deployment

According to official statements from Ajman Police, the 116 patrols include traffic and safety units deployed throughout the emirate during the National Day break. Their mission:

• Manage traffic flow on major roads and intersections
• Facilitate temporary diversions as needed
• Provide on-the-spot support to drivers and pedestrians
• Secure key event venues including the main parade area at Ajman Corniche Road
• Monitor compliance with safety rules and traffic laws

This comprehensive coverage ensures that celebrations remain festive without compromising on safety or causing major traffic headaches.

Focus on Parade & Crowd Safety

One of the core responsibilities of these patrols is to support the planned National Day parade on Ajman Corniche Road (scheduled for 4 PM on National Day). Security teams will ensure the route remains clear, manage crowd flow, and coordinate emergency response if needed.

For residents planning to attend or those living nearby, this means smoother access, safer crossings, and better crowd control. The increased police presence also serves as a reminder to respect traffic rules and public safety guidelines during the celebrations.

Why It Matters: Safety, Order & Community Confidence

The decision by Ajman Police to deploy 116 patrols highlights several important objectives:

Prevent traffic congestion & accidents: With many people traveling or attending events, roads can get crowded. Patrols help maintain smooth movement and prevent reckless driving.

Combat reckless behaviour: Celebrations often include reckless driving, noisy modifications, or unsafe stunts, all of which the police aim to curb.

Protect public spaces: From Corniche areas to fireworks viewing spots  patrols ensure safety and monitor crowd behaviour.

Reassure residents and visitors: A strong security presence builds confidence that celebrations will be orderly, enjoyable, and safe for all.

What Residents & Visitors Should Know

To help make the most of the National Day celebrations while staying safe, here are a few tips:

• Plan ahead: If you’re traveling around Ajman or heading to events, expect some diversions or traffic, leave a bit of extra travel time.
• Follow traffic rules: Avoid reckless driving, stunts, or loud music. Stick to seat-belt laws and vehicle capacity regulations.
• Respect public safety rules: Don’t overload areas, avoid blocking roads, and obey officers’ instructions.
• Use designated viewing areas: For parades or fireworks, go only to official locations that way you’ll stay safe and avoid fines or disruptions.
• Be patient and cooperative: A calm, community-minded approach ensures everyone can enjoy the celebrations peacefully.
