Notes & additional info

C4 Bus Route Dubai: Gold Souq to Al Jaddaf

 

C4 Bus Route Dubai is a central Deira-to-Jaddaf connector, linking Gold Souq Bus Station with the Al Jaddaf and Government Workshop area near Dubai Creek. It’s a practical option for anyone splitting time between the historic gold and spice markets of Deira and the newer waterfront district of Al Jaddaf.

 

Starting at Gold Souq Bus Station – one of Dubai’s two principal RTA hubs – the C4 threads through Naif, Union, and the Clock Tower Roundabout before reaching Oud Metha and Wafi City, then continues on to Al Jaddaf’s cultural and government precincts. Along the way it brushes past two Green Line Metro stations, making it a useful add-on for metro riders who need the last stretch to a specific street address.

Fare and Nol Card

Standard RTA zone-based fares apply on the Silver Nol card, starting from AED 3 for the first zone and rising with each additional zone crossed. As always, cash isn’t accepted onboard – a topped-up Nol card or Red Ticket is required before boarding.

Because the route stays largely within central Dubai, most passengers should expect a fare toward the lower end of the standard zone-based scale rather than the network maximum.
