Tadweer Concludes Outing in 2019 UAE Tour as Strategic Partner

Abu Dhabi Waste Management Center (Tadweer) has wrapped up its participation in the inaugural edition of UAE Tour, the only cycling race of its kind in the Middle East, as a strategic partner. 

In line with its support for the tour that spanned the length and breadth of the UAE and drew the participation of 140 international cyclists representing 20 teams from five continents, Tadweer provided automated and manual sweeping services along the entire course. The center deployed cleaners to remove sand residue from the main roads prior to, during and after the event, who worked round-the-clock to collect and transport waste from five designated points to ensure that tracks remained clean throughout the event.

Tadweer’s 65-strong team comprised managers, supervisors, drivers and cleaners who utilized advanced cleaning equipment, 12 vehicles and four-wheel pick-ups, as well as 106 small and large waste containers to effectively manage waste throughout the race.
