The Dubai Metro Red and Green lines will operate Saturday through Thursday from 7:00 am until midnight as of Wednesday.

According to the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), the same timings will apply for Dubai Tram journeys.

They clarified that both the metro and tram will also run from 10:00 am until midnight on Fridays.

Service timings have been modified after authorities eased restrictions on movement between 6:00 am and 11:00 pm starting May 27.

The RTA explained that the last metro train will move at 10:54 pm on the Red line from Rashidiya station and at 11:21 pm on the Green Line from Etisalat Metro Station.

Officials also said that 54 trains will operate on the Red Line and 17 trains on the Green Line during peak hours, serving a total of 46 stations.
