In collaboration with Keolis, the operator of Dubai Metro and Tram, four telephone booths have been installed at key stations including Al Ghubaiba, Union, and Jebel Ali Metro stations. These booths offer a vital opportunity for millions of expatriates in Dubai to strengthen familial bonds and connect with friends during the holy month.
The initiative is part of RTA’s broader Ramadan campaign, themed “Journey of Good,” which aims to enhance community engagement and teamwork. Various humanitarian and community-driven initiatives, including the Modes of Good initiative and the Ramadan Tent Project, are being carried out in collaboration with volunteers to support diverse groups within the community.
Additionally, internal initiatives for RTA employees focus on promoting healthy fasting habits and fostering social communication through activities like the Ramadan Bazaar and Iftar Gathering.
