The Abu Dhabi City Municipality has launched a campaign to remove abandoned bicycles and electric bikes across the city to preserve its public appearance in co-operation with Emirates Auction.
As a result of the campaign, fines were issued for a number of motorcycles and 922 abandoned bicycles and 43 electric bikes were removed as they were obstructing pedestrians and distorting the public appearance.
This came as part of the municipality’s efforts to combat negative phenomena and behaviours in order to preserve the overall civilized and aesthetic appearance of the city.
The campaign covered such areas as Al Dana, Al Hosn, Al Mushrif, Zayed Port, Al Reem Island, Saadiyat Island, Al Maryah Island and Hudayriyat.
The municipality continues its campaigns throughout the year to preserve the aesthetic and civilized appearance of all areas within its geographical scope with the aim of enhancing quality of life standards and contributing to the happiness of all members of society.
