RTA Conducts Inspection Campaign Targeting Overloaded Trucks
Dubai. Roads and Transport Authority. 22nd July 2024
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has initiated several inspection campaigns targeting overloaded heavy vehicles and trucks. These campaigns go in line with the Traffic Safety Strategy, and they have taken place in collaboration with the General HQ of Dubai Police. The inspections have been carried out on roads experiencing high traffic of heavy vehicles and trucks in the emirate, specifically: Al Maktoum International Airport Road, Dubai-Al Ain Road, Emirates Road, Ras Al Khor Road, Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, and Al Khail Road.
'These campaigns' primary objective is to improve transportation safety, aligning with our leaders' vision to raise traffic safety standards for all drivers and ensure the security and safety of all road users. The campaigns aim to raise drivers' awareness of the protruding and overloaded cargo hazards. These risks include truck rollovers, falling materials, endangering other road users, and compromising the lifespan of roads. Drivers were warned not to transport hazardous and flammable materials without proper licensing,' said Sultan Al Akraf, Director of Licensing Activities Monitoring, Public Transport Agency, RTA.
These campaigns are part of RTA's strategic plans implemented throughout the year, demonstrating its commitment to promoting traffic awareness and enhancing road safety. The initiatives deliver educational messages to drivers, urging them to comply with technical standards and traffic safety requirements for the safe operation of trucks, particularly during the summer season. The campaigns also reflect RTA's efforts to raise transportation safety and create safer roads, contributing to the leaders' vision of achieving higher traffic safety standards and ensuring safe roads for all.
