Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is embarking on a significant project to renew road markings across 89 locations as part of its 2025 Preventive Maintenance Plan for road line marking and signage

This initiative falls within RTA's broader strategy to ensure the safety and efficiency of the city's extensive road network.

The project underscores RTA’s dedication to maintaining high safety standards by providing clear guidance to motorists navigating Dubai’s roads.

Key Road Markings Renewed

As part of this effort, the re-striping will take place on 50 major roads, including:

  • Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street
  • First Al Khail Road
  • 2nd December Street
  • Al Khawaneej Street
  • Amman Street
  • Zabeel Street
  • Al Manama Street

The plan also incorporates road marking updates in 39 residential neighborhoods, such as:

  • Al Awir
  • Umm Hurair
  • Oud Al Muteena
  • Al Twar
  • Al Barsha
  • Al Sufouh
  • Al Qusais Industrial Area

Additionally, the project includes repainting red surfaces in speed reduction areas along major roads, re-marking box junctions at crucial intersections, and updating markings for paid parking zones and traffic-calming measures like speed humps.

Dubai Enhances Road Safety with Renewal

Abdulla Ali Lootah, Director of Roads and Facilities Maintenance at RTA, emphasized the importance of this initiative, stating, "The renewal of road markings is a top priority under RTA’s 2025 Preventive Maintenance Plan. We will repaint over 30,000 linear meters of road markings to ensure the highest levels of safety across Dubai's roadways."

He further added, "This project not only aligns with RTA’s Traffic Safety Strategy but also aims to position Dubai as a global leader in road safety and infrastructure quality. RTA employs the latest technologies for cleaning and renewing aging road markings, using premium materials that extend the life of road signs. Throughout this process, we are committed to implementing comprehensive safety measures to ensure smooth traffic flow at all work sites."
