The design of the new bus shelters takes the needs of People of Determination into account with wheelchair access and facilities for visually challenged individuals.
The shelters are near Satwa Roundabout, at Burj Khalifa Boulevard, and there are two on Al Mustaqbal Street.
1550 shelters are in the pipeline over the next three to four years.
