A station where you can continue traveling by bus or metro. Tickets at a special terminal or at the box office. If you walk a little up you can rent a private taxi. Price is negotiable.
A small square with a small train station in the same understanding. Everything is clear, the schedule is inside, outside. A terminal for replenishing transport cards, a quite decent toilet. The staff is kind and tries to help poor tourists. But the buses are late anyway, though not by much, but it makes you nervous.
Everything is organized clearly. Buses run according to the schedule, each from its own platform. If there is no Dubai plastic travel card, it is better to pay on the bus, it will be cheaper
A bus station where you can go to any emirate. The buses run exactly on schedule, the security service keeps order and ensures that they do not climb out of line. The buses are very comfortable, it's a pleasure to drive, the Union district itself is a Klondike of inexpensive goods and equipment, most likely a counterfeit, albeit high-quality. There is no sense of the security that prevails in the Emirates as a whole. I would not advise single girls to retire, I hope I'm wrong)
The bus station is next to the metro. You can travel by intercity to other Emirates. On the bus, payment with nol card cards right at the entrance to the bus (to Fujairah, for example, 25aed) Bus numbers can be viewed in 2gis or Google, buses are comfortable and inexpensive.
From here there is a bus to Fujairah and a double-decker bus to Sharjah. Fujairah costs 25 dirhams one way. The latest in 2024 at 20:00 and 24:00. That is, 4 hours between them. Half of the queue didn't get on the last bus with us!! Come at least 1 hour before departure. We arrived in 40 minutes and sat down somehow. In Fujairah, you can take a bus at any stop to the bus depot, they will drop you off there and buy a silver card and top up your account, take the same bus and go on. The buses are great
It is located next to the Union Red Line station. There is a waiting room, a toilet. Almost everyone speaks English. There are no screens or loudspeakers, so there is just a queue for the bus at the landing site. We drove from here to Fujairah for several days in a row. The last bus left at 00.00.
From this bus station, you can easily get from Sharjah to Dubai, to the metro. The most economical option. The buses are double-decker, it's the best thing to stare at Dubai skyscrapers while driving.
