Designed to ease severe traffic congestion and support the city's growing population, the metro features modern, air-conditioned trains, frequent service (trains every 2.5 minutes at peak times), and can carry up to 3.6 million passengers daily. It connects key areas including King Khalid International Airport, the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD), universities, commercial hubs, and residential zones.
Many stations stand out for their striking architecture, blending futuristic design with cultural elements—some have even been recognized among the world's most beautiful. As the backbone of Riyadh's public transport (integrated with the Riyadh Bus network), it promotes sustainable urban mobility and has already carried hundreds of millions of passengers since opening.
