What the new system will track
1 November 2026
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) says it is set to launch what it describes as the emirate’s first integrated smart monitoring system for delivery motorcycles, aimed at improving road safety and ensuring compliance with approved regulations.
According to the report, the system will use a digital platform combined with IoT-enabled monitoring devices and advanced cameras fitted to delivery motorcycles. RTA says it will collect and analyse driving indicators and on-road behaviour, including speed, sudden acceleration, harsh braking, driving patterns, and location and route data.
Optional rollout before full enforcement
RTA also says the initiative is designed to support delivery companies with real-time operational data that can help manage fleets more efficiently and support better rider behaviour.
As described, installing the monitoring devices and connecting to the platform will be optional from launch until the end of the first half of 2027, with the system becoming mandatory after the transitional period ends. The report adds that RTA is working with Dubai Police General Command and other relevant entities to build an integrated approach balancing operational efficiency with safety and regulatory requirements.
