Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has recently launched its investment platform branded ‘RTA Invest.’ This specialist digital platform is dedicated to serving investors and entrepreneurs interested in engaging with RTA in projects. Such projects are based on the principle of public-private partnership (PPP) and tailored to deliver advanced services to all spectrums of the community.

“This automated channel is designated to serve the business community and act as a tool for leveraging the collaboration between RTA and investors from the UAE and the world over. The platform also offers a portal for reviewing prospective commercial projects offered by RTA and details required about the available investment projects. It also enables investors to submit proposals and discuss project details and suggestions with RTA. Through this portal, potential investors can bid in tenders and submit unsolicited proposals and ideas to RTA,” said Ibrahim Al Haddad, Director of Commercial and Investment, Strategy and Corporate Governance Sector, RTA.

“The platform consists of a diverse array of investment opportunities including advertising in metro stations, bus stations, roadside assets, bridges and buses, and brand naming rights. It also encompasses public-private projects such as real estate, infrastructure and mobility-related projects as well as retail area vacancy status such as metro shops, metro kiosks/vending machines and bus station shops,” explained Al Haddad.

“We were keen on the timely launch of the ‘RTA Invest’ platform as it offers a better and integrated investor experience across all RTA projects under the PPP model. The platform provides a portal offering investment prospects available with RTA and engaging them via interactive channels for communication and sharing ideas, proposals and solutions based on innovative business models.

“Through launching this platform, RTA is seeking to measure up to the directives of our leaders, enhance projects competitiveness, and promote investment opportunities professionally to boost the appeal of infrastructure projects and initiatives. It also seeks to entice local and overseas firms, especially those engaged in ecosystems by enabling them to apply the latest transit-oriented finance and technology models. Such a practice will offer users and riders new options and set Dubai apart as a model city of the future with novel investment opportunities,” added Al Haddad.

“The platform offers fair and transparent opportunities for investors worldwide and provide them with instant access to projects and opportunities. It opens up a new channel for exploring and enticing international investors, which brings in more foreign capital to support the growth and image of Dubai as an attractive global investment environment that fulfils the ambitions of investors and innovators,” concluded the Director of Commercial and Investment, RTA.
