Etihad Rail

The national railway: 900 kilometres from the Saudi border to Fujairah, freight already running, passenger services in build with stations announced for Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Al Dhaid and Fujairah, and a Dubai to Abu Dhabi time of about 57 minutes.

What it means for property

National rail changes which emirates count as commutable. Sharjah and the northern coast are the biggest beneficiaries: a rail link prices RAK and Sharjah communities into the Dubai employment market for the first time. Watch the confirmed station districts, that is where the repricing lands first.
