The UAE is set to enter a new era of rail travel as Etihad Rail launches its passenger service on June 30. The long-awaited project will provide residents and visitors with a new way to travel between emirates.
The first passenger route will connect Abu Dhabi and Fujairah, reducing travel times and offering a comfortable alternative to road transport. The trains are equipped with modern facilities designed to enhance the travel experience.
The network will expand in phases, with more stations expected to open in the coming months. Officials say the project will improve connectivity across the country while supporting economic growth, tourism and sustainable transportation goals.
The launch marks an important milestone for the UAE’s national railway project and reflects the country’s commitment to developing world-class transport infrastructure.
