RTA Operates Electric Abras For Serving Global Village Visitors

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), in collaboration with the management of the Global Village, has endorsed a plan for operating electricity-powered abras to serve visitors of that popular leisure destination. The deployment of these abras on the Water Canal of the Global Village has been quite popular over the past eight years.

“RTA is always keen on running the abra service with the start of the Global Village season in November each year, especially as abras had proved extremely popular among visitors,” said Mansour Al Falasi, Director of Marine Transport, RTA Public Transport Agency.
