With the launch of the Dubai Metro Blue Line scheduled for 2029, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) continues its commercial station renaming initiative under the Naming Rights Project. First introduced in 2008, this initiative allows companies to acquire naming rights for metro stations, resulting in a number of name changes across the existing Red and Green Lines.

For residents and tourists alike, staying informed about the new and old station names is essential for navigating the growing transport network with ease. The Blue Line will add 14 new stations, expanding the total number to 67 metro stations, and will include 9 elevated and 5 underground stations over a 30-kilometre route.

Here is the updated list of station name changes across the Dubai Metro network:

Red Line – Old vs New Names

Green Line – Old vs New Names

Blue Line – Coming 2029

With these changes and upcoming expansions, Dubai Metro continues to evolve as one of the most advanced and commercially integrated transport systems in the region. The RTA urges commuters to stay updated on station name changes to avoid confusion during daily travel.
