Direct Metro Service Launched Between Centrepoint & Al Fardan Exchange
A new direct service from Centrepoint to Al Fardan links two busy stations at peak hours, giving passengers a faster ride and reducing platform crowding.
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced a new direct metro service connecting Centrepoint Station with Al Fardan Exchange Station to help reduce congestion during peak commute hours. The addition complements two existing direct routes from Centrepoint to Expo City Dubai and Life Pharmacy Station.
The update changes how Red Line trains operate, with services now alternating between multiple destinations. The adjustment is designed to cut down on transfers, shorten waiting times, and improve passenger flow through busy stations. According to the RTA, the move has already begun to ease overcrowding and reduce journey delays.
This service forms part of wider efforts to accommodate Dubai’s growing metro ridership. As the city’s population expands, the RTA continues to add shorter, more direct routes to optimise network capacity and enhance passenger convenience.
