The measure follows the decrease in the COVID-19 cases in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
In the wake of this, the RTA which had fixed nearly 170,000 stickers at various public transportation services and their stations to ensure that the highest level of safety was met has removed them.
Over the weekend, the social distancing stickers on the platform and the ‘Please don’t sit’ stickers on the seats in the Dubai Metro were removed.
