The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) and Abu Dhabi Projects and Infrastructure Centre (ADPIC) have launched a new public-private partnership (PPP) pipeline worth $14.98 billion (AED55 billion), bringing 24 infrastructure projects to market across transport, infrastructure and social sectors during 2026 and 2027.
The initiative is expected to create significant opportunities for private sector participation while attracting both foreign and domestic investment into Abu Dhabi as the emirate accelerates its long-term infrastructure development strategy.
The newly announced pipeline represents the next phase of Abu Dhabi’s infrastructure delivery program and highlights the emirate’s focus on advancing large-scale projects through structured partnerships with private sector investors and developers. IT will also support the establishment of international companies in Abu Dhabi, contribute to the Abu Dhabi Local Content program and strengthen the emirate’s industrial base and supply chain ecosystem.
The infrastructure program includes a diversified portfolio of projects backed by a clear delivery framework and sustained private-sector interest, aimed at supporting the emirate’s next phase of economic and urban development.
In the transport sector, authorities plan to develop 11 major road projects valued at $9.53 billion (AED35 billion). The projects will cover more than 300 kilometers of new and upgraded roads, tunnels, intersections and wider transport network improvements designed to enhance connectivity across the emirate.
A further $2.99 billion (AED11 billion) has been allocated for five infrastructure projects, including dams, water storage facilities, flood control systems, stormwater upgrades and urban landscaping works.
The social infrastructure segment accounts for $2.45 billion (AED9 billion) across eight projects. These include sports facilities, specialist healthcare assets, schools and university campuses aimed at supporting community development and improving long-term livability in Abu Dhabi.
The announcement comes as the emirate prepares to host the Abu Dhabi Infrastructure Summit 2026, underscoring the emirate’s efforts to accelerate infrastructure delivery, attract investment and expand public-private sector collaboration in strategic development projects.
