Transportation through water buses from Dubai to Sharjah

Posted by Samar Huneidi on Apr 22, 2013

If you have tried driving from Dubai to Sharjah during peak hours, you will know how slow the traffic is. That is why Dubai’s Road and Transport Authority (RTA) are thinking of possibly creating routes on the sea to connect the two emirates.

 

Initial feasibility studies have been made and it is only a matter of time before them officially announcing it.

 

“Currently, there are inter-city buses connecting Dubai and Sharjah and we see no reason why there would be no possibility of developing marine transport on similar lines,” said Dr Yousif Mohammed Al Ali, CEO of Public Transport Agency (PTA) at RTA, to Khaleej Times.” “It is part of the RTA master-plan to improve the public transport network and develop the different modes of transportation. However, it would be too early to announce a date when any new routes would take effect.”
