Dubai Unveils Dh34 Billion Metro Gold Line to Link 15 Strategic Districts

Dubai has approved a Dh34 billion (US$9.3 billion) fully underground Gold Line that will extend the Metro by 42 km, connect 15 key districts and serve 1.5 million residents. Scheduled to open in 2032, the project will slash cross-city travel times for business travellers, link new real-estate hubs and increase the network’s capacity by a third—reinforcing Dubai’s position as a high-mobility base for multinationals.
