Know about metro services
RTA informed that 20 stations on Green Line are now back up and working. The Big Red Line, which has 35 stations, operates only for short periods of time. The service on the Red Line is limited. The train does not stop at some stations. Only services from Dubai Metro Centrepoint to Expo 2020 and UAE Exchange stations will continue as usual. But the train will not stop at Onpassive, Equity, Mashreq and Energy stations. Those boarding from Centrepoint will have to change trains at Business Bay and Al Khail stations. Otherwise you will have to use the bus services provided instead.
