Buses & Water Transport
While metro and tram services remain the same, if you’re taking buses, abras, or water taxis, it’s best to check updated schedules on the S’hail app. The app will give you real-time information about your usual routes and stops during Ramadan.
For those who need assistance outside these hours, smart service centers in Umm Ramool, Deira, Al Barsha, and Al Kifaf will remain accessible 24/7.
Dubai is ensuring a smooth and convenient experience for commuters and employees throughout the month. Stay updated to Gulf Buzz and official RTA channels and enjoy a hassle-free Ramadan!
