Dubai Cycling Tracks: RTA Launches Instagram Win Campaign
Dubai cycling tracks are taking centre stage as the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) launches a community Instagram campaign, inviting riders across the city to share their favourite routes for a chance to win. The push comes as RTA confirms 13 newly completed cycling tracks, advancing a bold plan to build a 1,000km connected cycling network across Dubai by 2030.
Dubai Cycling Tracks: 13 New Routes Confirmed
RTA is calling on cyclists to capture their rides , whether through desert dunes, mountain terrain, or the city skyline , post them as Instagram Stories, tag @rta_dubai, and use the hashtag #DubaiThroughtheEyesofCyclists for a chance to win. The campaign runs across RTA’s official social channels and is open to all Dubai-based riders.
The 13 newly completed tracks are part of a structured infrastructure rollout designed to move cycling beyond recreational loops. RTA’s programme links residential communities with commercial centres, public spaces, and leisure destinations , positioning cycling as a practical first-and-last-mile option that connects directly with Dubai’s wider public transport network.
What This Means for Dubai Cyclists and Commuters
The Roads and Transport Authority is building dedicated, separated cycling facilities with clearly marked crossings , a design approach that reduces conflict points between cyclists, pedestrians, and vehicles. For families, new riders, and daily commuters navigating Dubai’s high-speed road network, continuous and connected tracks remove one of the biggest barriers to cycling: the confidence to complete an entire journey without switching to fragmented or unprotected segments.
