Intercity buses between Dubai and Abu Dhabi will resume on August 9 this year as demand rises, Dubai’s Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) announced in a statement.
The resumption of the E102 was done in light “to support the return to normalcy following the Covid-19 pandemic and in response to the increasing demand for the intercity bus service,” RTA said.
Commuters can access buses on the E102 route from Ibn Battuta Mall in Dubai and Mussaffah in Abu Dhabi. Coaches will operate at 60 minute intervals.
This year, two services were also restored — the E101 from Ibn Battuta Mall in Dubai to Abu Dhabi and the E100 route from Al Ghubaiba, located near Dubai Creek, to Abu Dhabi’s bus central station.
On the same date, RTA will extend 8 bus routes as follows, DMO said in a statement.
- Route 24 will be extended to reach the International City Bus Station.
- Route 44 will be extended to pass by Jaddaf.
- Route 88 will be extended at the Dubai Internet City.
- Route C04 will be extended to pass by Jaddaf.
- Route F08 will be extended to pass by Al Tawar.
- Route F33 will be extended to pass along a new business district.
- Route F56 will be extended at the Dubai Internet City, and Route X28 will be extended at the Dubai Internet City.
“Changes on the same date also include improving the journey timing as per the set timetables,” the statement said.
