Abu Dhabi authorities have announced a new traffic regulation effective from May 15, 2026. The regulation will ban delivery motorcycles from using roads in the city with speed limits of 120 kilometers per hour or more. This initiative aims to enhance road safety and reduce accidents involving delivery riders on high-speed highways.
Delivery motorcycles are common in Abu Dhabi due to the growing popularity of online food and goods delivery services. However, safety concerns on fast highways have increased, prompting the new rule. It will restrict these motorcycles’ access to roads where vehicles travel at very high speeds, thus minimizing the risk of dangerous traffic situations.
Authorities emphasize that this measure is part of a broader effort to improve traffic safety and protect all road users. Delivery companies and riders are advised to:
- Adapt to the new regulation
- Plan their routes accordingly
- Utilize alternative routes and designated safe zones for delivery motorcycles
These alternative routes and safe zones will be communicated to ensure smooth delivery operations despite the restriction.
This ban underscores the government’s commitment to creating a safer, more secure urban transport environment as Abu Dhabi continues to grow rapidly. Citizens and businesses are encouraged to cooperate with these traffic regulations to support ongoing safety initiatives.
