What is a railbus?
A railbus is a lightweight railcar that will travel via railway lines. The railbus service is a modern and environmentally friendly ride, which is presented as an environmentally friendly, efficient, and low-cost alternative to the available means of transportation.
It is pertinent to note that the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Railbus in January 2024 to develop a railbus system, which travels on a bridge equipped with solar panels to generate the electricity needed for the project.
