Traffic congestion in Dubai may soon become a thing of the past. At the World Governments Summit 2026, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) officially unveiled Glydways, a groundbreaking autonomous transit system designed to glide above or alongside existing roads.
These small, sleek, self-driving electric vehicles operate on dedicated narrow tracks, ensuring they never get stuck in traditional gridlock. Mark Seeger, CEO of Glydways, confirmed that the service is expected to begin its first phase of operations within the next four months, marking a major milestone in Dubai’s goal to make 25% of all trips autonomous by 2030.
