Dubai aims to lead urban mobility by 2040, surpassing Amsterdam and Copenhagen’s bike-friendly status. The plan outlines a 621-mile network of cycling routes, exceeding both cities’ benchmarks.
The “Dubai Cycle City 2040” strategy encourages cycling and walking for daily commutes, aiming to reduce travel times significantly. “The Loop,” a 58-mile climate-controlled bike trail, showcases eco-friendly transport and prioritizes residents’ well-being.
This infrastructure will connect key neighborhoods like Downtown Dubai, Business Bay, DIFC, Dubai Marina, JLT, and others, offering public services such as urban agriculture and communal spaces, including vertical farms for food security and a 100% recycled water system.
The Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan emphasizes an environmentally conscious metropolis, anticipating a population doubling by 2040. The plan focuses on expanding housing and urban infrastructure to meet the rising demand for properties in this evolving landscape.
