Dubai has given the green light to a significant expansion of its metro network with the approval of the Blue Line on Friday, November 24. This new line, spanning 30km and featuring 14 stations, comes at an estimated cost of Dh18 billion. One of its key highlights is its connection to vital areas in the city and the Dubai International Airport.
The anticipated impact of the Blue Line extends beyond improved connectivity. Authorities expect a notable 20% reduction in traffic congestion upon its completion. Furthermore, properties situated in proximity to the metro stations are predicted to experience a substantial increase in value, up to 25%.
As Dubai continues to invest in its transportation infrastructure, the Blue Line is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the city’s commuting landscape.
