UAE - Abu Dhabi Metro

In order to provide a fast service between the city's main commercial areas, the Department of Transport (DOT) has drawn up a $7 billion (bn) plan to develop a metro railway in Abu Dhabi as part of a master public transport plan for implementation stretching to the year 2030. The metro rail system will run approximately 70 kilometres (km) in two circular lines, and will be supported by tram and bus feeder services. Besides serving the projected increase in population of the city and relieving congestion, the metro will connect the mainland with communities such as Saadiyat, Yas Island and Al Raha Beach.
