The operation schedules of Dubai’s public transport including the Dubai Metro, Tram, and buses services will change starting January 3, 2022, in line with the new workweek next year.
Mondays to Thursdays’ timings of both the Red and Green Lines of the Metro will be from 5:00 am to 1:15 am (of the following day).
On Friday and Saturday, all Metro lines will operate from 5:00 am to 2:15 am (of the following day). On Sunday, the Metro will be in service from 8:00 am to 1:15 am (of the following day).

Dubai Bus will be operating from Monday to Thursday as well as on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, according to the applicable Bus Scheduling System.
This came as Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced new working hours at offices and service-providing centres across the Emirate in line with the Dubai Government’s resolution to change the work timing to bring it in line with the Federal Government’s new system.
The new official workweek begins on the first Monday of 2022.
The working hours will be from 7:30 am to 3:30 pm, except for Friday where the duty time shall be from 7:30 am to 12:00 (midday).
