FUJAIRAH: Experience Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony on UAE’s Mountain Highway! -

Read Time:1 Minute, 0 Second

Drivers in the UAE emirate of Fujairah now have a unique musical experience while on the road. A stretch of nearly one kilometer on the E84 mountain highway features special road rumble strips that play Beethoven’s famous Ninth Symphony as vehicles drive over them.

Innovative Road Design

Rumble strips are usually designed to warn drivers if they are veering off the road or into another lane by making a noise when tires roll across them. However, engineers in Fujairah have innovatively designed these strips to produce different musical notes at specific intervals. When cars pass over the sequence of grooves at the correct speed, a clear melody emerges.

Combining Technology and Culture

This musical road brings together technology and classical music, making driving safer and more enjoyable. The Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony on the road is the first of its kind in the UAE and aims to attract tourists and music lovers alike.

Cultural and Safety Impact

The installation adds cultural value and charm to the mountainous road, helping raise awareness for road safety in an entertaining way. Local authorities hope this project will inspire similar initiatives across the region.
