The shift towards implementing the e-hail strategy for taxis has significantly improved sustainability and traffic flow in Dubai. In the meantime, the sector witnessed substantial growth in 2024, propelled by exceptional performance and notable service enhancements. Over the past two years, RTA has achieved significant milestones in transforming Dubai's taxi sector through e-hail, supported by a series of strategic initiatives. RTA has further improved key performance indicators for taxi availability during peak hours, enhancing both service delivery and scope,” Shakri explained. This achievement was driven by reducing the average wasted driving distance by 3 km per trip for e-hailed rides compared to conventional taxi trips, equating to a saving of 5 minutes of unnecessary driving per trip.
