Dubai's Etihad Rail station, located adjacent to Jumeirah Golf Estates, is set to revolutionize the emirate's transportation, infrastructure, and real estate sectors when it opens on September 30. The station, which is nearly complete, offers a 57-minute journey from Dubai Al Yalayis Station to Abu Dhabi Mohamed bin Zayed City Station.
Its opening is expected to encourage more people to commute between the two emirates, potentially leading to an increase in property values in the surrounding area, known as Dubai South. Realtors anticipate property price increases in the next three to five years due to extensive developments and new Metro stations being built nearby.
The Etihad Rail network currently connects Abu Dhabi and Fujairah, with plans to expand the network further.
