Starting October 25, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) will be celebrating the 13th Public Transport Day, the theme of this year’s event focuses on wellness, to encourage the use of public transport means for improved physical and mental health.
From October 25 to November 1, RTA will award 15 winners with nol points and various other vouchers. Individuals, as well as RTA employees among the most frequent users of public transport, stand a chance to win one million nol Plus points for the winner, 500 thousand points for second place and 250 thousand points for third.
Public Transport Day is held in conjunction with Dubai Fitness Challenge 30×30, the initiative launched by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council. The initiative encourages residents to practice 30 minutes of fitness for 30 days.
The first day of the campaign includes a diverse cast of sports and health activities and exercises including the Stop to Move initiative that encourages healthy lifestyles on board public transport means, and Quick Relaxation in the tram and marine transport means and marine transit means. The initiative sends WhatsApp messages notifications in specific geographic zones to passengers (within a radius of 500 meters around each station) urging them to meditate, relax and adopt correct breathing techniques.
