Abu Dhabi, Tuesday, 27 October 2026 – The Integrated Transport Centre (Abu Dhabi Mobility), an affiliate of the Department of Municipalities and Transport, has won the Pioneering Sustainable Cities Award in the Sustainability category at the 14th Dubai Award for Sustainable Transport (DAST) 2026, in recognition of its efforts to develop policies and regulatory frameworks that support sustainable mobility and contribute to enhancing the efficiency and integration of Abu Dhabi’s transport ecosystem.

This recognition reflects the Integrated Transport Centre’s efforts to support the transition towards a more integrated and resilient transport system through the implementation of five strategic objectives under the Surface Transport Master Plan.
