Elevated viaducts on the unfinished Dubai Metro rapid transit network railway under construction. Advanced Urban Rail transport Systems in Dubai. UAE


The Dubai Metro (In Arabic: مترو دبي) will be a driverless, fully automated metro network under construction in the United Arab Emirates city of Dubai. The network will have two third rail collection system powered lines that will both run underground in the city center and on elevated viaducts elsewhere on double tracks. The first phase of the network is being built by Dubai Rapid Link (DURL) Consortium which comprises Japanese companies including Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Corporation, Obayashi Corporation, Kajima Corporation and the Turkish company Yapi Merkezi. The Dubai Metro will be operated by the Dubai Road and Transport Authority.[1] The Dubai Metro system will be the longest fully automated rail system in the world. Completion of the first section of the system is projected for 2009.
