1. Route 21 will be renamed and split into two routes - 21A and 21B.

2. Route 61D will be merged with Route 66.

This change will result in Route 95A only, enabling users of Route 95 to connect to Route X92. Additionally, the path of Route 95A will be adjusted to start from Veneto, Jebel Ali Waterfront, to Parco Hypermarket to cover the Jebel Ali Industrial Area.
4. The path for Route 6 will be shortened to run from the Bus Stop at Oud Metha Metro Station to Dubai Healthcare City, due to the cancellation of the sector from Al Ghubaiba Station to Oud Metha.

7. New stops will also be added in Al Furjan for Route F45.
