If you are in Knowledge Village or Dubai Media City today you can spot Dubai Tram make its first entry into the area, as phase 2 of the trial period kicks off.
Road and Transport Authority (RTA) commences with the second stage of testing on Wednesday, [April 16]. It will take place in Zone 2, starting from Dubai Knowledge Village and ending in Media City. The tram will run along four stations – Marina Towers, Mina Seyahi, Media City, and Palm Jumeirah – where it will eventually connect to the Monorail of the palm-shaped island.
The launch of the next testing phase concludes a successful trial of the tram in phase 1, where the tram made its first appearance outside the tram depot, passing along Al Sufouh Road towards Knowledge Village and back.
