The second line, DC3, operates from 4pm to 11pm on Saturdays and Sundays. It connects Al Jaddaf Station with the Dubai Design District Marine Transport Station. This service runs every 35 minutes, with a fare of just Dh2 per stop on both lines.
“The aim of developing and resuming the operation of the two lines is to efficiently achieve our objectives of supporting the economy, enhancing the quality of projects and life, and serving waterfront development projects,” said Khalaf Hassan Abdullah Belghuzooz Al Zarooni, director of marine transport at RTA’s Public Transport Agency.
