RTA Completes Maintenance Of 67 Footbridges In 2022

In accordance with the implementation plans for the traffic safety strategy, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has finished maintaining 67 footbridges, including 5 air-conditioned glazed bridges across various areas of Dubai in 2022. The project’s purpose is to provide a safe infrastructure for pedestrians.

These bridges help create an interconnected network that makes it easier for people to commute between nearby neighbourhoods on foot. They also offer smooth, safe travel with cutting-edge, environmentally friendly mobility solutions and services, making every trip in Dubai an exceptional one.

As a preventative step for the safety of footbridge facilities, the scope of maintenance work completed over a full year included the installation of 10 electric lifts for multiple bridges. These initiatives are the result of RTA’s desire to offer safe transit options for pedestrians so they can cross the roadways quickly and safely by utilising the most recent management, maintenance, and sustainability techniques in regard to assets.
