The government of Abu Dhabi is planning a tram system, as part of a broader long-term transport strategy. In 2009, it was suggested that the tram system would enter service in 2014; as of 2024, construction has begun on the project.

Network

A 340 km tram network is planned. The network will have three lines, focussing on the CBD, with connections to Reem, Suwa, Khalifa City A and B, Al Raha beach, and Saadiyat Islands.
