A standout feature of this network is the 33-kilometer Olympic Cycling Track, which holds the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous cycle path

The Public Works Authority, Ashghal, has delivered more than 1,808 kilometers of pedestrian and cycling tracks between 2020 and 2025 in Doha, Qatar. This project is not merely an infrastructure task but a strategic alignment with the Qatar National Vision 2030.
Olympic Cycling Track
A standout feature of this network is the 33-kilometer Olympic Cycling Track, which holds the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous cycle path. It is a dedicated 7-meter-wide, bidirectional path separated from traffic.
The track includes 29 underpasses and five bridges, allowing cyclists to ride continuously without stopping at intersections. The route is fully illuminated for night cycling and includes 100 benches and 20 rest areas.
Safe And Accessible Transit For All
The development comes as part of its ongoing efforts to enhance road safety and provide a safer, more sustainable mobility environment for all road users, while developing a modern and integrated road network that supports sustainable transportation across cities and residential areas. The paths are strategically designed to link with the Doha Metro stations and major bus hubs, facilitating “first and last-mile” connectivity for commuters.
The network includes both shared pedestrian and cycling paths, as well as dedicated cycling tracks. Also, it has successfully integrated pedestrian and cycling tracks into highway, main road, and local road projects. This has improved accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists, while enhancing safety and traffic flow on Qatar roads.
Top Cycling Routes
Some of the top cycling routes in the country are 5/6 Park (1.1km), Lusail International Circuit (5.3km), Olympic Cycling Track (33km), Al Bidda Park (5km), Aspire Zone Park (5km) and Al Khor Road (38km – track integrates with Olympic track).
