Dubai Tram — Map, Lines, Route, Hours, Tickets

Dubai Tram Information

Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum inaugurated Dubai’s first tram line on 11 November 2014. The 10.6km tram line currently serves 11 stations, with around 8 more planned. There are future plans to connect the tram line to the monorail serving Palm Jumeirah. The line is actually operated and owned by two different entities. It is owned by the Road and Transport Authority (Dubai) and operated by Serco. The Dubai tramway is unique in that it is the first tramway network outside of Europe to use an at-grade power supply system.

Dubai Tram Timings and Frequency

The tram is a very accessible form of public transport, both in terms of fares and timetables. It runs no less than 19 hours a day. From Saturday to Thursday, the line operates between 06:30 and 01:30 the next day. On Fridays, the service starts a little later and runs from 09:00-01:30 the next day. The minimum interval between two trams is about 8 minutes.

Dubai Tram Tickets

Just as Nol cards are used to pay for the metro, they can also be used for other public transport such as buses and even trams. However, the fare depends on the number of zones you travel through. Now that the entire network is in a single zone, the maximum fare for a single journey, regardless of distance, is only 3 dhirams.

Children under the age of 5 do not need a ticket to travel on the trams.

Dubai Tram Parking

Parking is available for tram passengers. However, as is now the case, there is only one car park, located on the 3rd floor of the building that houses the Palm Monorail.
