RTA resumes 4 intercity bus services

Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is restoring 4 intercity bus services as of 19th May, especially with life returning to normal in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the growing demand for buses across these routes.

“The four intercity bus routes to be resumed from Dubai are: E100 from Al Ghubaiba Bus Station to Abu Dhabi, E201 from Al Ghubaiba Bus Station to Al Ain, E315 from Etisalat Metro Station to Muwaileh, Sharjah, and E700 from Etihad Bus Station to Fujairah,” announced Adel Shakeri, Director of Planning and Business Development, Public Transport Agency, RTA.

Named F38, the new metro link service starts from Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station and passes through several districts to the destination the Dubai Sports City,” added Shakeri.

“RTA is always keen to deliver excellent and highly efficient public transport solutions to various members of the community. It also cooperates with government, semi-government entities and private companies to deliver safe and sustainable public transport solutions including public buses across Dubai. Requests received from various entities in the emirate are subjected to elaborate feasibility studies and extensive field surveys before the launch of the service,” Shakeri concluded.
