Abu Dhabi is set to launch a new fleet of eco-friendly electric and hydrogen-powered buses to enhance public transport sustainability in the city. This initiative is part of Abu Dhabi Mobility's green transport project, aligned with the emirate's goal of transitioning 20% of public transportation to zero-emission by 2030 and achieving 100% environmental friendliness by 2050. While the exact number of buses and routes is still being determined, the successful use of 9 electric buses servicing Zayed International Airport and COP28 in December 2023 showcases the advancement in green transportation efforts. Changes in bus fares have also been introduced, with a standard fare of Dh2 per rider and additional charges based on distance traveled. The fare structure includes options for weekly and monthly passes to provide flexibility and cost-efficiency for regular commuters. Specific discounts are available for students, seniors, people of determination, children under 10, and Emirati families enrolled in government social support programs. This initiative aims to make eco-friendly public transport more accessible and affordable for residents and visitors in Abu Dhabi. By offering a convenient and sustainable transport system, the city is taking significant steps towards a greener future.
