E 66 (Arabic: إ ٦٦‎) is a road in the United Arab Emirates. The road connects the city of Dubai to the interior city of Al Ain in the Eastern Region of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. E 66 runs roughly perpendicular to E 11 (Sheikh Zayed Road) and E 311 (Sheikh Mohammad Bin Zayed Road Road). Beginning in the locality of Oud Metha, E 11 progresses southward towards the interior. The road is referred to as "Dubai-Al Ain Road", after its intersection with Emirates Road south of the city of Dubai, and "Tahnoun Bin Mohammad Al Nahyan Road", after Sheikh Tahnoun, the Ruler's Representative in the Eastern Region of Abu Dhabi.[1]

History


In 2010, the road had been revamped in two phases. The first phase contained 3 lanes in each direction, and stretched 23 km (14 mi) from Al-Towayya to Al-Masaken. The second phase contained 4 lanes in each direction, and stretched 42 km (26 mi) from Al-Masaken to Al-Faqa'. In November 2018, under the directives of Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the road was renamed after Sheikh Tahnoun.[1]
