Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced that two new cycling tracks will be constructed in Dubai.
The tracks will be located at Al Khawaneej and Mushrif, and will extend 7km, linking with the existing tracks in the two districts.
The first track will run from Quranic Park on Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street to the intersection at Al Khawaneej Street, with the second lane starting at Mushrif Park near the Crocodile Park, extending up to the intersection with Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street, and then heading northward up to the intersection with Al Khawaneej Street.
His Excellency Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority said, "The cycling track in Al Khawaneej and Mushrif is part of a master plan to develop cycling tracks and connect key districts of the city. The plan, which extends to 2026, includes the construction of additional cycling tracks extending 278km, bringing the total length of cycling tracks to 819km. The plan also seeks to link the coastal areas such as Jumeirah, Al Sufouh and the Marina with the external tracks at Al Qudra, Seih Al Salam and Nad Al Sheba along Al Barsha, Dubai Hills and Nad Al Sheba."
