The main option: route E308

RTA announced route E308 as a new intercity service from 2 May 2025. It runs between Stadium Bus Station in Dubai and Al Jubail Bus Station in Sharjah. The reported one-way fare is AED 12.

Gulf News adds that Stadium Metro Station on the Green Line is a commonly used connection for Sharjah residents commuting into Dubai, because the bus station sits next to it.

Where sources disagree

  • Fare: RTA reports AED 12 for E308. dubizzle lists AED 12 for RTA buses and AED 17 for a Sharjah-operated service. An older travel site lists AED 10 on one route. We show the official figure first and mark the rest as unconfirmed.
  • Ferry: Gulf News reports a ferry option from the marine station near Sharjah Aquarium, with a regular ticket at AED 15 and Gold Class at AED 25. We have not confirmed the route, timings or current price.

What we still need to verify

  1. Current E308 timetable and fare on the official RTA page.
  2. Whether each secondary-source route still operates.
  3. Sharjah-operated service fare and payment method.
