Sharjah announces additional buses and reduced waiting times for the Eid travel period.

Sharjah’s Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) has announced a comprehensive operational plan for the Eid Al Adha holiday, increasing public transport services and trip frequencies across the emirate to accommodate higher passenger demand during one of the busiest travel periods of the year.

The authority said the plan is designed to improve traffic flow and provide safe, efficient, and convenient transport services for residents and visitors throughout the holiday period.

As part of the expanded operations, SRTA will run 9,760 intercity trips using a fleet of 155 buses, connecting Sharjah with other emirates.

Bus intervals on intercity routes will be reduced to as little as five minutes during peak hours to manage the expected increase in passenger demand.

Marine transport services between Sharjah and Dubai will also continue operating throughout the Eid break, with scheduled departures running across the day.

According to the announced timetable, ferries from Sharjah to Dubai will operate at 2:00 PM, 4:00 PM, 6:00 PM, and 9:00 PM, while return trips from Dubai to Sharjah are scheduled for 3:00 PM, 5:00 PM, 8:00 PM, and 10:00 PM.

The authority added that public transport within Sharjah will continue running with 104 buses operating 1,144 daily trips across 12 routes and serving 527 bus stops.

The Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) also confirmed that Route 22, which serves Souq Al Haraj, will be temporarily suspended during the Eid holiday period.
