The routes will cover Jebel Ali Port, Al Maktoum Airport, Jebel Ali Port Rail Freight Terminal, DIP, and Ibn Battuta Mall
Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has identified five initial routes for the pilot operation of driverless heavy vehicles in the emirate, as part of a newly approved comprehensive regulatory framework.
The routes will cover Jebel Ali Port, Al Maktoum International Airport, Jebel Ali Port Rail Freight Terminal, Dubai Investments Park, and Ibn Battuta Mall. Trials on these routes will be "closely monitored," with some operated under the supervision of a safety driver while others are designated for driverless operations.
Announced on Sunday, the framework for the operation of autonomous heavy vehicles for logistics transport sets regulatory standards for licensing procedures, assessment of operational trials, technology requirements, and other conditions to ensure road safety.
