Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has intensified its efforts to tackle violations in passenger transport services through a series of inspection campaigns. In 2024, the authority conducted 25 campaigns, leading to a total of 606,430 inspections across various modes of passenger transport, including public buses and marine transport.

These inspections specifically targeted fare evasion, school transport operations, air-conditioned shelters, and passenger transport via chartered buses. The RTA’s initiatives are carried out in collaboration with organizations such as Dubai Police and the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security, emphasizing a collective approach to enhance service quality and compliance.

The RTA’s campaigns play a vital role in upholding Dubai’s reputation for exceptional public transport services and safety standards. Officials have called on the public to comply with fare payment rules and adhere to regulations concerning school transport and other services, highlighting the importance of these measures in ensuring smooth and efficient travel for all residents and visitors.
