Residents and travelers in the UAE can now enjoy a new, budget-friendly way to commute between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched a taxi-sharing service priced at just 66 dirhams per passenger, providing an economical alternative for intercity travel.
This service allows up to four passengers to share a ride, reducing costs and environmental impact. The initiative supports the UAE’s Vision 2021 by promoting sustainable transportation. Passengers can book their trips conveniently through a mobile app, which ensures a smooth user experience with real-time updates and easy payment options.
As traffic between these two major cities increases, this service offers a practical solution for daily commuters, tourists, and residents alike. An RTA spokesperson hinted at potential expansions to other emirates, which could further enhance connectivity across the UAE. This new service is a significant step towards more affordable and sustainable public transportation in the region.
