Dubai Police has unveiled its ambitious 2040 vision for safer and smarter roads, aligning with the Dubai Urban Master Plan. The plan, overseen by Brigadier Juma Salem bin Suwaidan, Director of the General Department of Traffic, aims to bolster road safety and prepare for future challenges. Artificial intelligence and digital technologies will play a crucial role in identifying and addressing potential risks before they escalate into serious road safety issues.
The vision will monitor emerging traffic trends to prioritize projects that meet future needs. The plan, endorsed by senior Dubai Police officials, includes 100 opportunities to enhance security and quality of life. The Future Foresight Centre, led by Colonel Omar Khalifa Balobaida Al Suwaidi, collaborates with various police departments to develop innovative ideas that will shape the future of policing and long-term growth in the emirate.
The 2040 vision will assess current conditions, monitor new trends, and pinpoint potential risks and opportunities to craft plans and projects that safeguard Dubai's roads and communities. Young people will also be given a significant role in shaping the future of policing and security.
