About Roads and Transport Authority

Dubai is one of the fastest-growing cities in today's world, making the provision of high-quality infrastructure facilities absolutely imperative. With that in mind, as well as the high priority allocated by the government of Dubai to the provision of an advanced transport network for the people of Dubai, RTA endeavors to improve the public transport facilities and develop roads across the emirate to make travel safer and smoother. The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) came into formation in November 2005. It is responsible for planning and executing transport and traffic projects in Dubai, preparing legislation and strategic plans, planning and constructing the Dubai Metro, and developing other integrated solutions for road systems and marine networks that are safe and in line with the city’s economic development plans and the highest international standards.
