Easier JAFZA Commutes with DrivenBus

How flexible worker shuttles are transforming the daily commute to Jebel Ali Free Zone

For thousands of people working in Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), the daily commute can be the toughest part of the job. DrivenBus is changing that. Our flexible worker shuttles now run door-to-door pickups from Rigga, BurJuman, Al Quoz, and Satwa straight to JAFZA—slashing average travel times by over 50% and making the journey calmer, safer, and more predictable.

What’s different about DrivenBus?

  • Door-to-door (or near-home) pickups in key residential areas: Rigga, BurJuman, Al Quoz, Satwa
  • Direct runs to JAFZA that align with shift times
  • Book your exact seat in the app—no guesswork, no standing
  • Live tracking so you know precisely when your shuttle arrives
  • RTA-Supported service with professional drivers and continuously monitored operations

Why this matters

Commuting time isn’t just a number—it affects sleep, punctuality, mood, and productivity. By cutting travel time in half (and often more), workers arrive on time and are less stressed, with a much smoother start and end to each shift.

How it works (in 3 easy steps)

  1. Download the DrivenBus app and create an account.
  2. Choose your pickup point (home or closest landmark) and select your JAFZA destination.
  3. Book your exact seat and track the shuttle in real time.

That’s it—no long interchanges, no ambiguity, no “where’s the bus?” moments.

Early outcomes we’re seeing

  • 50%+ commute time reduction for most riders on JAFZA routes
  • Higher on-time arrivals thanks to reliable, direct corridors
  • Happier rides: better comfort, less crowding, and transparent ETAs
  • Peace of mind: exact seat bookings and live tracking reduce daily friction
