Just in time for the sweltering summer months, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has declared that almost 900 air-conditioned bus shelters are now completely functional throughout the emirate. The action is a component of an inspection effort designed to guarantee the safety and comfort of commuters during the hot season.
These contemporary shelters provide a pleasant respite from the heat of the desert and are positioned in high-traffic areas. As part of Dubai’s goal to deliver top-notch public transport infrastructure, the shelters are furnished with seating, cooling systems, route information displays and solar panels at specific positions.
To guarantee a smooth travel experience for customers, RTA’s inspection teams have been diligently looking for working air conditioners, hygienic surroundings, and accessible features. Special emphasis was also placed on ensuring energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.
As the summer heat intensifies, the RTA has encouraged passengers to make use of these upgraded facilities and continue using public transport comfortably. This project demonstrates Dubai’s dedication to improving commuter ease and upholding its standing as a city with intelligent, climate-resilient infrastructure.
