Hi-Tech school buses will soon be available in Dubai

Dubai Taxi Corporation (DTC) within the RTA is making significant preparations for the upcoming academic year by introducing state-of-the-art buses exclusively dedicated to serving approximately 25,000 students across Dubai. The school transport fleet operated by DTC adheres to the highest local and international quality and safety standards, ensuring the secure transportation of students to and from school.

Ammar Rashid Al Braiki, the Director of Fleet Operation at DTC, underscores the strategic commitment of the organization to build parental and community trust while creating a safe and secure transportation environment for students throughout the school year. This commitment is backed by DTC's extensive experience, abundant resources, and substantial investments in advanced technologies.

“Such a drive, which is aligned with the highest safety and monitoring standards observed in Dubai, will also promote the confidence of the Emirates Schools Establishment towards building a long-term partnership in delivering school transport services,” he added.

DTC's school buses are equipped with a range of intelligent features designed to enhance safety and security. These features include surveillance cameras, a system to prevent any inadvertent student left-behind incidents, a mechanism for monitoring student movement during transit, and an emergency alert system facilitating immediate communication with the emergency management centre. Furthermore, the buses feature an advanced GPS-based electronic tracking system and a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system, streamlining the boarding and disembarkation processes for students. The inclusion of an automatic fire suppression system for the engines further enhances overall safety. Al Braiki also highlights DTC's commitment to fostering safe and responsible driving skills among school bus drivers and attendants. This commitment is demonstrated through specialised high-level training courses, emergency handling drills, and First Aid training. These measures ensure that the team is well-prepared to address any unforeseen emergencies that may arise during the school transportation process.

It is noteworthy that DTC provides a diverse range of services to its clients and remains dedicated to delivering top-quality transportation services tailored to meet consumer needs. The organisation is unwavering in elevating service standards through innovative and contemporary offerings.
