RTA Extends Dubai Metro Schedule To Handle Increased Weekend Passenger Flow



The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced on Thursday that Dubai Metro's operating hours will be extended over the weekend to accommodate increased passenger traffic. The metro will run from 5 a.m. to 2 a.m. until Saturday, August 24, and from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. on Sunday, August 25.


This move comes as Dubai International Airport (DXB), the world's busiest international airport, prepares to handle 3.43 million travelers over the next 13 days, with a significant influx expected as residents return from their summer holidays. Dubai Airports has stated that over half a million passengers will pass through DXB between August 31 and September 1, with September 1 projected to be the busiest day, accommodating 291,000 guests.


Earlier this month, DXB reported a record 44.9 million visitors in the first half of this year.
