Dubai: The Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall Metro Station is set for expansion to accommodate growing passenger demand, particularly during New Year’s Eve, public holidays, and national events.
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), in collaboration with Emaar Properties, announced that the project will expand the station’s area from 6,700 to 8,500 square metres, increasing its hourly capacity from 7,250 to 12,320 passengers – a 65 per cent rise. Once complete, the station will be able to serve up to 220,000 passengers per day.
