E307A Bus Timings
Sharjah to Abu Hail starts an hour earlier, at 5:30 AM, to get Sharjah residents into Dubai for the working day; Abu Hail to Sharjah starts at 6:30 AM. Sunday starts much later in both directions — the biggest timetable trap on this route.
| Direction | Days | First Bus | Last Bus | Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Abu Hail → Sharjah Al Jubail | Monday–Saturday | 6:30 AM | 10:35 PM | Every 20–30 minutes |
| Abu Hail → Sharjah Al Jubail | Sunday | 11:16 AM | 10:25 PM | Longer gaps — check S’hail |
| Sharjah Al Jubail → Abu Hail | Monday–Saturday | 5:30 AM | 9:55 PM | Every 20–30 minutes |
| Sharjah Al Jubail → Abu Hail | Sunday | 12:15 PM | 11:30 PM | Longer gaps — check S’hail |
Scheduled journey time is about 44 minutes from Abu Hail to Al Jubail and about 35 minutes back, but Al Ittihad and Al Wahda Roads are heavily congested at peak times, so allow much longer then. Check live departures in the S’hail app on the day you travel, particularly on public holidays.
Fare and Payment: Nol Card Only
The E307A fare is AED 12 one way, in either direction — the standard RTA fare for the Dubai–Sharjah corridor. It is a flat fare, paid by Nol card only. Cash is not accepted and the driver cannot sell you a ticket.
- Make sure your Nol card holds at least AED 12 before you board, plus enough for onward connections.
- Tap in when you board and follow the on-bus instructions for tapping out.
- Buy or top up a Nol card at Abu Hail Metro Station, any Dubai Metro station, bus stations and authorised retailers, or via the RTA and Nol Pay apps.
- Do not rely on a Sharjah Sayer card: the E307A is an RTA service and its payment method is Nol. The AED 12 covers the bus only; onward Metro and Sharjah local bus rides are charged separately.
How to Reach Abu Hail Bus Stop and Metro Station
Abu Hail Metro Bus Stop A sits beside Abu Hail Metro Station in Hor Al Anz, Deira, on Salah Al Din Street — an elevated Green Line station between Al Qiyadah and Abu Baker Al Siddique, with step-free access.
- Arriving by Metro: Take the Green Line to Abu Hail and follow the signs to the bus stops outside — a transfer of a few minutes on foot.
- Continuing into Dubai: The Green Line runs from Abu Hail to Union and BurJuman (change there for the Red Line) and on to Al Ghubaiba and the Creek. One Nol card covers bus and Metro.
- By taxi or on foot: Ask to be dropped at Abu Hail Metro Station, walk to the signed E307A stop and confirm the board reads Al Jubail before boarding. At the other end, Al Jubail Bus Station sits next to Al Jubail Souq and the Corniche, with onward buses and taxis.
Tips for E307A Passengers
- Beat the corridor traffic. Travel before the morning peak towards Dubai or after the evening peak towards Sharjah if you can — mid-morning and late-evening buses are fastest and least crowded.
- Remember the Sunday late start. There is no early Sunday bus: 11:16 AM from Abu Hail and 12:15 PM from Sharjah. For a Sunday-morning crossing, use another route in our Dubai to Sharjah bus guide or a taxi.
- Choose your Dubai terminal by destination. E307A for Abu Hail and the Green Line; E307 for Deira City Centre; E303 for Union Square; E306 for Al Ghubaiba in Bur Dubai.
- Board at the terminus if you need a seat, and top up the night before. At busy times the bus can fill at Abu Hail or Al Jubail, leaving limited room at stops such as Ansar Mall and City Centre.
