The Government of Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority RTA celebrates Public Transport Day on November 1. In 2019, it is the 10th anniversary of this initiative and it also falls on the 14th anniversary of RTA. It is also the 5th anniversary of the Dubai Tram. The theme for Public Transport Day is #TravelBetterLiveBetter.
