Bus shelters across the emirates will be converted into one-stop shops by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA). Each air conditioned ‘Smart Shelter’ will have free WIFI, a mobile charging station, a snack counter, a smart kiosk and a screen that displays real time information on buses’ locations.
