Dubai elevates its transportation game with a solar-powered rail bus system

Dubai is reaching new heights in transportation innovation by proposing the development of a rail bus system designed to operate on a solar-panel-equipped bridge. Additionally, there are plans for a double-track system that enables swift and efficient movement of transport units within urban areas.

During the Dubai International Project Management Forum (DIPMF), the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) sealed memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with two specialized companies in transport system development and manufacturing. These agreements were signed with the UK-based Urban-Mass Company and the US-based RAIL BUS Inc.
