Metro (Dubai) — After a lengthy wait, the Dubai Metro launched in September 2009. It is a well-used and extraordinarily cheap way to get around parts of the city, with fares as low as AED 1.80, and the most expensive standard fare less than AED 6. It stops at 49 stations (nine of which are underground).
You will need a Noll card (see Buses for more info). For those concerned about crime, fear not: a total of 3,000 CCTV cameras keeps an eye on Dubai Metro’s passengers. Full details of the route and stations opened are available at www.dubaimetro.eu.
