The emirate of Abu Dhabi has a modern bus system that has been on an expansion course for several years. The coming years the bus fleet is to more than double in size! The table below gives the current fleet, based on observations. ADDT appears to have started their operations around 2007/2008, replacing the previous system oprated by Abu Dhabi and Al Ain municipalities. Information on the very interesting fleets operated by the municipalities will be added later. ADDT has no proper website yet, though a website on the metro system that is under planning/construction gives some insight in transport developmensts: http://abu-dhabi-metro.com/
It appears the 8000-series Ankai buses were the first used to modernise the system. Many have already been noted as being out of service beginning of 2012!
Buses operaing in and around Abu Dhabi are green and white, buses opering in Al Ain are orange and white and longer distance buses are red and white. The Ankai buses were seen in (almost) allover green and in brown and white.

The pictures below, taken in February 2012, show that the system will be further expanded. From 2011 to 2015 the fleet is to grow from 640 to 1574 buses!
