The Route 2020, the extension of the Dubai Metro Line will start operations on January 1.

The operations will begin on four stations namely: Jebel Ali, The Gardens, Discovery Gardens and Al Furjan.

The new metro line will benefit thousands of UAE residents, bringing more convenience to the public on the New Year day.

"Our congratulations to the RTA on the opening of this part of the Route 2020 extension. The new stations will be a much-welcomed start to the New Year for third party developers, property owners, residents, retailers and business at these communities," Aqil Kazim, Nakheel Chief Commercial Officer, said.

He added, "Research shows that properties within walking distance of a Metro station command higher sales and rental rates, and show more resilience compared to those in other areas."
