Dubai Metro Services That Are Currently Operational

Presently, Dubai Metro services are operational between Centrepoint and Expo 2020, as well as UAE Exchange stations. RTA emphasises that commuters departing from Centrepoint Metro station must transfer at Business Bay or Al Khail stations. RTA further elaborates, “The train will either be replaced or traffic will be diverted to buses to ensure a smooth transfer to the following stations.”

As a result, passengers are required to disembark at Business Bay or Al Khail stations and utilise shuttle buses to reach the subsequent station. However, some commuters have reported limited availability of shuttle bus services, exacerbating their travel inconveniences.
