Rail Grinding for Smoother Rides

As part of the comprehensive maintenance efforts, RTA also performed rail grinding along the Red and Green Lines, covering 189 kilometers of track. This process helps remove surface defects and restore the tracks to their original condition, promoting smoother and safer journeys for passengers.

These upgrades not only aim to improve the quality of service but also reduce the need for future repairs and corrective maintenance. By extending the lifespan of the trains and tracks, RTA expects to lower long-term operational costs and boost overall efficiency.
