Sharjah: There’s now a more scenic way to get to the Sharjah International Book Fair for visitors from Dubai – on free boats that bring guests to a temporary dock especially set up at the lagoon right behind for the Fair, being held at Expo Centre Sharjah.
SIBF organiser Sharjah Book Authority (SBA) has announced a partnership with the Roads and Transport Authorities (RTA) of Sharjah and Dubai to facilitate access for visitors travelling from Dubai.
As part of this partnership, Sharjah RTA will operate 10 boats, providing free transportation for visitors from Dubai and Sharjah throughout the Fair. The boats will run from Sharjah Aquarium station directly to Expo Centre Sharjah, where a temporary docking area has been established to accommodate this service.
Badr Mohammed Saab, director of Government Communications at SBA, said: “The new partnership enhances SIBF 2024 visitors’ experience, ensuring seamless access from Dubai. As the fair has become a key annual destination for thousands of visitors from both the UAE and abroad, our initiative to provide free boat services from the Sharjah Aquarium Station to a temporary dock at Expo Centre Sharjah is a vital step forward, providing convenience for our guests and promoting sustainable transport options, reinforcing our commitment to accessibility and visitor satisfaction.”
