Authorities in Dubai on Tuesday encouraged residents to work from home amidst heavy downpours. But they advised people to use Dubai Metro if they have to go to the office.
The Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai also encouraged people to use the metro and avoid personal vehicles due to water ponds and flooding in different parts of the emirate. Dubai Airports also asked passengers to use Dubai Metro to reach Dubai International (DXB).
Many Dubai residents heeded the authorities’ call to use the Dubai Metro on Tuesday. One of them was Dubai-based billionaire, Danube Group’s founder, and chairman, Rizwan Sajan.
