Dubai's Air-Conditioned Bus Stops

This one might seem like a no-brainer, and that’s because it is. Air-conditioned bus stops are a game-changer, especially in places with scorching climates like Dubai. So far, about 636 of the city’s 2,700 bus stops have been upgraded with cooling systems, and other Emirate cities are planning to follow suit. Getting stuck in the sweltering heat isn’t just uncomfortable—it can be downright dangerous Could you imagine waiting for a bus in 110-degree weather without relief? Thankfully, cities like Miami, Florida, are taking note. In 2019, Miami launched a similar project to install shaded and cooled bus stops, offering a glimpse of hope for other U.S. cities. With rising temperatures across North America, isn’t it time more cities adopted this smart solution? These stops not only improve comfort but also encourage public transit use, reducing traffic and emissions. Who wouldn’t want that?
