DMT’s vision extends beyond just a few streets.

Whether you’re looking for a scenic ride, a workout, or a fun family outing, there will be plenty of space for every kind of cyclist.

Safety and Convenience Take Priority

To ensure these new pathways are both safe and enjoyable, DMT is working closely with Abu Dhabi Police and other authorities. The goal is to implement top-tier safety measures, such as protected bike lanes and cyclist-friendly designs, so that riders of all skill levels can pedal with confidence.
