Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced plans to introduce a Rail Bus system to the emirate on Monday.
The transport system will feature vehicles measuring 11.5 metres in length and 2.65 metres in width, with each unit carrying 40 passengers at speeds of up to 100 kph.
“Discover the new ‘Rail Bus’ by #RTA at the #WorldGovSummit 2025, with an operational speed of 100 km/h, and a capacity of 40 passengers,” the RTA said via X.
According to the Rail Bus website, the vehicles’ lightweight design and flexibility will reduce infrastructure maintenance costs compared to Dubai’s Metro track system.
More details will be revealed during the World Governments Summit this week.
