Tiding Taxi services from RAK to Dubai
The period from 2007 onwards shall see the reorganization of the main taxi stands of Ras Al Khaimah and provide exclusive taxi services to the desired destinations. There shall be two separate taxi lines in the main taxi stands of Ras Al Khaimah, one line that shall serve exclusively for passengers traveling to Dubai via the RAK Emirates Road and the other line for passengers heading to Sharjah, Ajman and Umm Al Quwain via the old Al Jazera Al Hamra highway.
The current arrangement endorses loading of all the passengers in a single taxi enroute to Dubai. It then travels through Sharjah, Ajman and Umm Al Quwain on Emirates Road often getting struck up in its traffic spending more than four hours to reach the Diera taxi stand. This arrangement is not allowed as per the Traffic Department’s regulations of RAK which allows the Emirates Road exclusively for traveling to Dubai. For traveling to other destination, the drivers are stipulated to take up the old Al Jazera Al Hamra highway.
The old arrangement was convenient for the drivers because their turns come up faster. But this aspect is taken care of in the new arrangement the registered drivers will have two turns one per line consecutively.
The step is of paramount significance as it will discourage the unregistered drivers and prevent wastage of time. The passengers at different destinations will travel on different lines and reach the desired stops in shorter span of time.
