News flash - 23 million people have used the new train system! According to press release
What utter nonesense, but it looks good!
Dubai has a population of about 1.8 million (if that).
The metro has been open since 09.09.09 starting with a line 52 km long and going out to an industrial area.
When I have seen the metro it's always empty and of course the traffic is still as bad.
So 1.8 million would have to live in the same area of Dubai and travel every day on this one line that is opened partially (not all stations are open). Expats and European visitors would not use the Metro!
I think the figure is nearer to 1.3 or 2.3 million people.
Get my Drift???
