Instead of the usual schedule from 8:00 AM to midnight, the service will be extended by five hours, operating from 3:00 AM, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced.
“The Dubai Metro Red Line and Green Line will operate from 3:00 am to midnight on Sunday, November 10, 2024,” the RTA said in a social media post.

Dubai Ride, part of the month-long Dubai Fitness Challenge, is set to attract thousands of participants, following last year’s turnout of more than 35,000.
The cycling event will offer a 12-km route along Sheikh Zayed Road, as well as a more leisurely 4-km ride through Downtown Dubai.
