Riyadh Metro welcomed its 100 millionth passenger in less than 9 months since the project’s launch in early December of last year.

Riyadh Metro achieved an operational punctuality rate of 99.7%

The number of users on the Blue Line along the Al Olaya route reached approximately 46.5 million passengers since its opening, followed by users of the Red Line along King Abdullah Road with 17 million passengers, then the Orange Line along the Madinah Road corridor with 12 million passengers.

The number of users on the other three lines reached 24.5 million passengers, with an operational punctuality rate of 99.7% since the start of operations.

Qasr Al-Hukm Station, the Financial Center Station, the main stc Station, and the National Museum Station witnessed the highest number of Riyadh Metro users, exceeding 29%, due to their role as transfer stations between multiple metro lines.

Riyadh Metro services integrate with an extensive bus network, in addition to public transport parking facilities, providing passengers with a seamless experience from the moment they leave their homes until they reach their final destinations.
