Soon, cyclists in Abu Dhabi can enjoy a long scenic ride across the city — with the upcoming ‘loop’ that will link the Capital’s key attractions.
The emirate’s authorities on Tuesday announced a Bike Abu Dhabi platform, through which massive cycling-related infrastructure projects will be rolled out.
The mega plan will extend the Capital’s 300km cycling network to more than 1,000km. A big part of this project is the 109km Abu Dhabi Loop - a segregated cycle way that will connect key destinations across the city, further enhancing mobility and encouraging residents to engage in a healthier lifestyle through safe and sustainable transportation.
Plans are also in place to build Velodrome Hudayriyat - a 3,500-capacity arena for track racing, which will pave the way for more opportunities to host high-profile international and local cycling events.
The 12,000sqm development will further enhance Hudayriyat Island as the city’s main cycling hub.
Abu Dhabi boasts a rich tradition of cycling, with established cycling hubs, including a total of 28km of cycling track on Hudayriyat Island and 40km in Al Wathba. These world-class facilities are open to cyclists of all abilities - from group riders to solo cyclists and families.
Abu Dhabi has also become a hub for world-class cycling events, having hosted various stages of the UAE Tour, a UCI WorldTour event, and the National Road Championship, as well as regular year-round events for amateurs.
