School Buses
Dubai College has recently reviewed its bus operation to ensure that no student's journey exceeds 60 minutes, and most are significantly less. It operates a mixture of in-house buses and others provided by a third party. All drivers and conductors are fully trained to ensure the safety and security of all passengers. The bus routes are planned once it is known who is wanting to use the service.
We are not able to offer a door to door service but will allocate the stop as close to the students' residence as possible. It is the responsibility of the parent(s) to ensure that their children are at the pick-up point at the designated time. Buses will not leave from the collection point ahead of schedule. However, due to traffic pressures, buses will not be able to wait at pick-up points after the scheduled time.
Subject to demand, our School’s buses pick up/drop off at designated stops in the following areas:
Al Barsha, Arabian Ranches, Arabian Ranches 2, Business Bay, Damac Hills, Dubai Hills Estate, Deira, Dubai Marina, Emirates Hills, Garhoud, Green Community, Jebel Ali, Jumeirah, JLT Park, Jumeirah Golf Estates, Jumeirah Heights, Jumeirah Park/ Islands, Karama, La Plage Jumeirah, Meydan Heights, Mirdif, Motor City & Motor City – Green Community, Mudon, Satwa, Silicon Oasis, Sustainable City, The Greens, The Lakes, The Meadows, The Springs, The Villa/Falcon City/Majan, Umm Suqeim, Villa Lantana, Victory Heights, Wafi City 1
