Over 64K passengers lifted by Dubai Metro on Saturday, 6% rise reported

Commenting on this, Dr. Aysha Al Busmait, Director of RTA's Customer Service Centers Department, expressed her satisfaction and pleasure over the constant rise of Dubai Metro riders.

Al Busmait added, "This large response to use the metro certainly indicates that the public transport culture among different social segments is growing, and this will definitely contribute to diminish the traffic jam and reduce the pollution due to the large number of private cars."

Al Busmait appealed to the public to abide by the safety and security rules at the stations and on board the trains, as they are here for the public own benefit. The "Musanada Team" (Support) formed by the Department are available at the metro stations to give hand and support to the public, and the team members would be characterized with carrying "Ask Me" tags.
