The Integrated Transport Centre (Abu Dhabi Mobility), affiliated with the Department of Municipalities and Transport, participated in the 8th United Nations Global Road Safety Week through a series of targeted awareness and on-ground initiatives. This year’s campaign focused on enhancing pedestrian safety and promoting the responsible use of micromobility across the emirate. Abu Dhabi Mobility’s participation reaffirms its commitment to advancing road safety through global partnerships and local community initiatives. It also reflects the Emirate’s broader vision of building a safe, inclusive, and forward-looking transport environment.
The programme featured a range of on-ground activities across Abu Dhabi, tailored to engage key community groups. Commenting on the occasion, Engineer Abdulla Hamad Al Eryani, Acting Executive Director of the Planning and Strategic Affairs Sector at Abu Dhabi Mobility, stated that the initiative reflects the Centre’s ongoing efforts to embed safety into daily mobility practices. He noted that real impact comes from sustained awareness and close coordination with partners and the wider community.
Al Eryani added that achieving meaningful change in road behaviour depends on sustained, real-world engagement and delivering clear, relatable safety messages. He highlighted that coordinated action among key stakeholders is essential to ensure these efforts have lasting and measurable impact. The initiative builds on Abu Dhabi Mobility’s continued efforts to encourage safer transport behaviours through direct engagement with the public. It represents a shift towards practical, sustainable solutions that empower individuals to actively contribute to a safer mobility culture across the emirate.
