The Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) has the Dubai Travel Pass (Terhaal) initiative out in the market through selected outlets and will be widely available to tourists from the first week of the New Year.
The initiative is an attempt to give visitors to Dubai the ability to use public transportation with relative ease upon arrival in the Emirate.
The intention is to provide means for visitors to travel from their homes and back to their homes seamlessly. Over a phased launch period, the pack will be available to tourists at various points during their trips, to allow them to decide on ground transport, while developing their visit plans.
The main objective of the initiative is to ensure that visitors are given an immediate overview of public transport modes including Dubai Metro, Dubai Bus and Dubai Water Bus.
RTA is intending to ease the mobility of tourists across Dubai, while also make their visit a memorable experience, brought on by the use of some of the best infrastructure and systems in the world besides contributing to the enhancement of the tourism in Dubai.
The Dubai Travel Pass, includes two Silver Nol Cards, booklets about the integrated public transport systems, maps, information of interest to visitors, places to visit and how to get to those places using public transport, as well as other general information such as telephone numbers of emergency service, police, embassies, and ambulance. The pack also includes various value-added offers for use in Dubai on the trip, courtesy of RTA and its partners.
