Dubai's transportation, including the Tram, is truly world-class. Highly recommended for exploring Internet City, Dubai Marina, or taking a scenic monorail journey. The convenient connection from Dubai Marina Metro station adds to the accessibility. With nominal fares and NOL card acceptance, it's both efficient and user-friendly. The inclusion of a separate cabin for women and children enhances the overall service. From sleek design to beautiful stations, the Dubai Tram offers a seamless and delightful commuting experience, making it a standout in the realm of world-class transportation

I have a bad experience with the man who controls the tickets, he spoke to me very rudely.the situation is this, I went on the tram for the first time, and did not know how to use the gold card.he didn't help me and I had to leave by taxi! Thanks for the service, I don't approve of that.ask your employees to communicate politely with tourists

The Dubai Tram (Arabic: ترام دبي) is a tramway located in Al Sufouh, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It runs for 14.5 kilometers (9.0 mi) along Al Sufouh Road from Dubai Marina to the Palm Jumeirah and Al Sufouh. The tram connects with the Jumeirah Lakes Towers and DAMAC Properties stations of the Dubai Metro's Red Line, and two more stations are expected to connect with the tram in the future. The Dubai Tram is also connected with the monorail of the Palm Jumeirah at the entrance of the Palm from Sufouh Road.
Alstom Citadis 402 trams near the Al Sufouh depot in July 2014.
The first section, a 10.6-kilometer (6.6 mi) long tram line which serves 11 stations, was ceremonially inaugurated on 11 November 2014, by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, with the line officially opening for public service at 6: 30 am (UTC 04: 30) on 12 November 2014.
The Dubai Tram is the fourth tramway project in the world after the Bordeaux tramway in 2003, and the Reims and Angers tramways in 2011, to be powered by the Alstom APS ground-based electric supply system.
The planning and construction of the Dubai Tram was undertaken by a consortium of Alstom, Besix and Parsons.
Construction has been divided into two phases: Phase 1, was expected to be open in April 2011, however it was delayed until November 2014. Upon completion, Phase 1 of the tramline will operate 11 trams, serving 11 stations, covering 10.6 kilometers (6.6 mi) of route. The Phase 1 will cost AED 3.18 Billion. [1] Some 9.5 kilometres of the Dubai Tram project will be built as part of the first Phase 1. [1] Phase 2 will add 14 more trams and eight more stations along an additional 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) of route.
As of 10 October 2010, the construction work on Dubai Tramway had progressed according to the scheduled completion of 2014. However the project was put on hold a month later due to lack of finances. The construction of the tramway was resumed in January, 2011 with 30% of Phase 1 having been completed. [9] In mid-2014, the tramline entered the testing phase, and it began operation in November 2014.
The Dubai Tram use 11 Alstom Citadis 402 trams for Phase 1. The trams are 44 m (144 ft) long with a capacity of 408 passengers. Maximum speed is 50 km/h (31 mph), giving an average operational speed of 20 km/h (12 mph).
The trams use the Alimentation par le Sol II (APS II) ground-level power supply, and so do not need overhead cables. This method was first used in Bordeaux, France. The Dubai Tram is the world's first tram network to use platform screen doors at the stations, as well as a new Supervised Vehicle Operation (SVO) mode that will ensure accurate station stop and safety during passenger transferThe trams have Gold (first) and silver classes, and space dedicated to women and children.
The first tram was presented to Mattar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Road & Transport Authority, at Alstom's La Rochelle factory on 14 June 2013

The dubai tram is the best way to explore the Internet city, dubai marina or if you wish to take a monorail journey. There is a very convenient connection from Dubai Marina Metro station to Dubai Tram. There is a payment machine at the Tram Station where NOL cards are accepted as mode of payment. The fares are very nominal & the tram has a separate cabin for women & children.
