Dubai has introduced 15 new air-conditioned rest areas to support delivery riders during the midday work ban. This initiative by the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) aims to improve road safety and enhance the quality of life for riders who face extreme heat and challenging conditions while working.
The rest areas are conveniently located near bus and metro stations, offering riders essential services and comfort to rest and refresh. These facilities are part of the RTA’s ongoing efforts to provide better support to delivery riders, ensuring their health and safety in the city’s demanding climate.
Delivery riders have welcomed the new rest stops, emphasizing the importance of such services for their well-being. The midday work ban restricts outdoor work during the hottest hours, making these air-conditioned spots crucial for riders who continue their deliveries during other times.
By offering cool and safe places to rest, Dubai is setting a new standard in caring for its vital delivery workforce. This move is expected to:
- Reduce heat-related health risks
- Improve the efficiency of delivery services across the city
