Dubai Executive Council on Wednesday approved the Dubai Traffic Safety Strategy 2022-2026, which was developed by the Roads and Transport Authority and the Dubai Police Headquarters.
The strategy’s objective is to make Dubai one of the safest cities in the world and achieve the zero road deaths vision through the development and implementation of 53 strategic initiatives that fall under four key categories, traffic control, vehicle and highway engineering, traffic awareness, systems and management.
The strategy will complement what has been achieved within the objectives of the National Agenda and Dubai Plan 2021 while ensuring the creation of alternative and sustainable private means of transportation.
It will also entail an integrated system for the road and traffic safety sector that utilises the latest technologies and mechanisms that reduce traffic accidents and their impact on lives and property.
Dubai is constantly commissioning infrastructure projects and improving its existing infrastructure to protect society at large and contribute to the growth of the national economy across various domains.
