With residents set to enjoy a long weekend and with heavy rush expected, commuters can also hail a taxi to Abu Dhabi.

Earlier this month, a new taxi-sharing pilot service between Dubai and Abu Dhabi was launched by the RTA, in an initiative that would help passengers to save up to 75% of travelling costs.

Earlier this week, RTA had announced that Dubai will have three new bus routes beginning Friday, November 29, including Route 108, which directly connects Satwa Bus Station to Global Village.

Route 108 will operate on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, public holidays, and during special events. Service hours are from 2pm to 1am the next day, with 11 trips per direction daily and a 60-minute frequency.
