As part of its efforts to reduce pollution and maintain a clean environment, the Department of Transport at ADP has completed the transfer of more than the required percentage (10 per cent of the total) at the start of the application last year, spending $511 per vehicle. According to Major General Khalil Dawood Badran, director general of Finance and Services at ADP, this was achieved in 2011.

ADP has received two certificates from Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc) for being the first government entity starting to implement the transfer of 25 per cent of the total number of vehicles of government agencies to use CNG, and for being the first government agency that completed the ratio required for the year 2011 on time.

Brigadier General Jumaa Ahmad Hamel Qubaisi, director of the Department of Transport, added that the transition of vehicle engines was completed in more than the required number. He said that according to the plan, 15 per cent of the total vehicles at the General Headquarters of ADP will be transferred in the next phase.
