RTA wins Prince Michael International Road Safety Award 2020

Dubais Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has won the Prince Michael International Road Safety Award 2020 in recognition of its outstanding achievements through its Traffic Safety Strategy Scheme.

 In the process, RTA has become the first government entity outside the UK to win this prestigious award for the third time running, having won it earlier in 2013 and 2016.

“Since its inception, RTA has been very keen to make significant improvements in traffic safety levels. It succeeded in reducing road fatalities to as low as 2.3 cases per 100,000 of population, which is an outstanding achievement across the globe,” explained Eng. Maitha bin Adai, CEO of Traffic and Roads Agency.

Prince Michael International Road Safety Awards are distributed annually to the best traffic projects and concepts related to the improvement of road traffic safety levels worldwide.

RTA won the award in the category of Road Safety Management based on seven specific criteria set by an official judges panel.

These criteria set for the project’s assessment include quality and inclusiveness, initiative and achievements, benefits, continuous assessment during and after the project, long-term commitment, scalability, and financial & technical sustainability.
