All You Need to Know about Dubai Metro

Dubai's metro is inexpensive, efficient, and clean. It's among the greatest ways to move around the city and everything is automatic. Except in Deira, where the subway tracks are raised, it is worthwhile to travel in the front carriage, which boasts a glass window viewing the city and is a great way to enjoy the ride more.

All You Need to Know about Dubai Metro

The world has never seen a Metro system as contemporary, comfortable, and dependable as the one created by the Road and Transportation Authority (RTA). The trains include separate sections for men and women/children and are air-conditioned. This metro not only connected Dubai to all other emirates, but also to the city itself. Here we provide Dubai Metro Map to show its coverage area in Dubai City.

The metro currently has two well-designed lines, despite its very limited coverage:

Red Line: This route begins at Rashidiya, close to the airport, and travels through Dubai until it reaches Jebel Ali in the south. It makes stops at the Ibn Battuta Mall, the Emirates Mall, and the Burj Khalifa. If you check the Dubai Metro Map above, the Red Line coverage is much more than Green Line till date.

The Green Line passes through Deira's and Bur Dubai's main tourist destinations. Union Square and Bur Juman are the two stations where you can switch between the two lines.

In order to expand on the 18 green line stations and the 35 red line stations that are currently in operation, both the green and red lines will probably be extended further in the future. Other lines might open in the future as well and the Dubai Metro Map will be updated with New Lines and New Routes to increase its coverage area of the city.
