Municipalities and Transport Unveil New Urban Framework
The Abu Dhabi Department of Municipalities and Transport has developed a new framework that integrates quality of life into the planning of major urban development projects, with the aim of building more connected and inclusive communities that meet residents' needs. The framework focuses on designing walkable neighborhoods, interconnected transportation networks, vibrant public spaces, and a high-quality urban environment, all to ensure long-term enhancements in residents' well-being. Its implementation is overseen by the Urban Planning and Licensing Center and covers areas with a population of more than 2,000 residents, while also facilitating the submission and approval of plans. The initiative aims to realize Abu Dhabi’s vision for healthier, more connected cities, and to strengthen its international reputation as one of the best cities to live in the region, according to The Economist Intelligence Unit's 2026 ranking.
