You can also get tickets by downloading the Riyadh Bus app. The app is available on both the App Store and Google Play. Or, you can also use contactless payment methods like a bank debit card or credit card to pay for your trip.

The buses run on ultra-low-sulfur fuel making them environmentally friendly as it reduces air pollution and CO2 emissions. Meaning that they fit right in with the sustainability of Vision 2030.

With a goal to provide comfortable, affordable and time-saving transportation, the Riyadh Buses are set to be popular.

Put on your seatbelts, it’s going to be anything but a bumpy ride.
