“RTA has completed a wide range of mega projects

totalling over AED146 billion in value. These projects are

highlighted by the Dubai Metro, the world's longest

driverless metro network extending 90 km, which has

transported over two billion riders from the start of

operation on 9/9/2009 up to the end of last year.

“Projects also included constructing the 11 km-long

Dubai Tram, extending the bus routes from 2,095 km to

3,967 km (in both directions) from 2006 to 2023, and

deploying a modern fleet of public buses comprising

1,400 buses compatible with the European specifications

for low carbon emissions "Euro 6". RTA is also operating

an integrated marine transport network including

traditional abras, Dubai Ferry, and water taxis. It has also

developed an extensive network of roads and bridges

reflected in extending the total length of the network from

8,715 lane-kilometres in 2006 to 18,886 lane-kilometres in

2023. Last year witnessed the opening of several vital

road projects, including Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan bin
