Dubai Metro
I don’t have the technical details but it seems that Dubai’s Metro is going to be ready very soon, maybe just a matter of months until they have their full Metro system and hopefully it will lessen the traffic they have.
If it even stops 10% of car travel then that would be fantastic, but I wonder how it is inside those trains. We will know soon enough, but for now they have done a good job in investing in their infrastructure, hopefully this progress in their infrastructure will continue.

I really hope it helps with the traffic! It would be awesome.

If it reduces traffic, then good for them. But metro in this heat?

Stafa

I’m sad to see the new DXB terminal doesn’t appear to have a pointless flying saucer hanging from the ceiling. Maybe they decided there’s already too many aliens in Dubai…

on the metro side of things though… it’s going to be an “above ground” system like Bangkok’s Skytrain… sadly not an underground metro where you can easily escape the heat…

The Dubai Metro is Elevated as well as Underground. The train will pass the creek from below in a tunnel to come out on other side. Burjuman and Union Square are two interchange stations for Red and Green Line, both underground.
