Dear Parents,

Many of you will be aware of the rising popularity of electric scooters, which are increasingly being used for short journeys – including, in some cases, to and from school. Like bicycles, these offer a convenient, environmentally friendly, and fun way to cover short distances, helping to reduce congestion and pollution on Dubai’s busy roads.

It’s important to bear in mind the rules and regulations governing the use of e-scooters, and I’m therefore keen to remind all families who may have purchased or who are considering purchasing an e-scooter of the guidelines set out by Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

In line with the RTA’s guidelines, no e-scooters will be allowed onto the school campus and the Al Barsha 1 area is not a permitted zone. 

Full details can be found online here, but in summary, please note the following:

• E-scooters are permitted in the following locations: Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard, Dubai Internet City, Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Al Raqqa, 2nd December Street, Al Rigga, Palm Jumeirah, Al Mankhool, Al Qusais, Al Karama, City Walk, Al Tawar 1, Al Tawar 2, Umm Suqeim 3, Al Garhoud, Muhaisnah 3, Umm Hurair 1, Al Safa 2, Al Barsha South 2, Al Barsha 3, Al Quoz 4, and Nad Al Sheba 1.

• Riders must have a valid licence issued by the RTA to drive two-wheeled vehicles and must be at least 16 years old to ride an e-scooter.

• Riders must wear reflective vests and helmets at all times and are not permitted to carry passengers.

• Riders must maintain a safe distance from other vehicles as well as pedestrians and must dismount at pedestrian crossings.

• E-scooters can be ridden and parked only on RTA’s designated tracks and parking spaces. They should not be used on jogging or walking tracks.

• Riders are prohibited from riding on pedestrian tracks and on roads with a speed limit of over 60km per hour.

Please refer to the page on the RTA website (here) for further details, including potential penalties for not abiding by the laws set out.

As a school, our students’ health and safety remains our number one concern, so we urge all parents to familiarise themselves with the rules and ensure their children are compliant and, most importantly, safe. In line with the RTA’s guidelines, no e-scooters will be allowed onto the school campus.

As ever, your support and cooperation are greatly appreciated.
