Dubai Metro-Etihad Rail pedestrian bridge opens October 15

Etihad Rail passengers will be able to transfer directly to the Dubai Metro from Thursday, October 15, when a new pedestrian bridge connecting Al Yalayis railway station to Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station opens. The approximately 400-metre bridge links Etihad Rail's Al Yalayis station with Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station on the Dubai Metro Red Line. For passengers arriving in Dubai by train, the connection provides access to the wider Metro network, including key commercial, residential and tourist destinations across the city. Commuters travelling from other parts of Dubai will be able to take the Metro to Jumeirah Golf Estates and walk to the Etihad Rail station to board their trains. The new link removes the need for a separate road transfer between the two stations.
