Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced that its supreme committee for strategic planning and corporate transformation has endorsed the Strategic Plan 2023-2030.

 

The committee meeting, which was chaired by Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of RTA, gave the go-ahead to the plan which is aligned with the Dubai Urban Plan 2040, Dubai Plan 2030, Dubai Government Directives and the UAE Government Vision, We the UAE 2031. 

 

Under the Strategic Plan 2023-2030, RTA has revamped its mission, corporate values and strategic objectives and has set an ambitious target to become a 'world-leader in seamless and sustainable mobility.'

 

The aim is to focus on envisioning the future, undertaking strategic projects in support of the economy, wellbeing and happiness of residents and visitors, keeping pace with the global and future trends of roads and transport, said Al Tayer.

 

"Revising the strategic plan is also attributed to the local, regional and global developments. It attaches due consideration to the deliverables of the Dubai Urban Plan 2040, Dubai Plan 2030 and other initiatives," he added.

 

According to RTA, the new strategy has set key strategic goals including seamless and innovative mobility, sustainability and health, safety and security. 

 

With regard to seamless and innovative mobility, the Authority said it aims to facilitate the development of roads and transport systems based on a 20-minute community. 

 

This system is linked to world-class transport services, smart mobility solutions and the optimal utilisation of the right-of-way, it stated. 

 

On sustainability, RTA said it involves comprehensive concepts and elements of social, financial and environmental sustainability. It seeks to expedite the migration to zero-emission mobility means by 2050, and promote social responsibility, rendering Dubai a global model in the field of sustainability. 

 

Another major goal is to promote mobility safety, provide a safe environment for the community, support the integration of mass transit means, ensure safe and smooth mobility, and promote business continuity. 

 

RTA said as part of the strategic plan, it will also focus on a future-proof organisation that aims to build corporate capacities in developing leading R&D and innovation, adopt soft business models, and forge effective partnerships. 

 

It also calls for promoting the profile of RTA in digital migration along with connected and instant systems to support the decision-making process based on a scientific and systematic manner.
