Centrepoint

Centrepoint Station marks the end of the line - quite literally. As the terminus of the Dubai Metro's Red Line, it is the point where journeys begin and end, and where feeder buses connect the metro to the surrounding areas. The station was designed with park-and-ride commuters in mind, and its facilities reflect that practical purpose.

Dubai's metro system is driverless and fully automated, running on elevated viaducts through most of the city before descending underground in the older, denser districts. The Red Line offers a fast, air-conditioned alternative to driving on Dubai's congested roads, and the terminus stations are well-equipped for passengers starting longer journeys into the city.
