Roads and Transport Authority

Providing an advanced transport network for the people of Dubai was among the top priorities on the government’s agenda, a goal reflected by the initiatives to enhance the public transport facilities and improve roads across the emirate to make travel safer and smoother, thus the founding of The Roads and Transport Authority by the Decree No. 17 of 2005.

RTA plans and provides the requirements of transport, roads and traffic in Dubai, and between Dubai and other Emirates of the UAE and neighboring countries, in order to provide an effective and integrated transport system to achieve Dubai's vision and serve its vital interests.
