So the new walkway linking the Metro Station at Dubai Mall/Burj Khalifa is now open so that you can comfortably walk from the station to the Mall without having to go outside. Previously it was necessary to either walk the approximately 1km to the mall from the station or else get a feeder bus to take you there. Now you can go straight there and this is likely to increase footfall in the Mall itself. The walkway has been under construction since last year and is 885m long.
I checked out your website and blog on Dubai and both were awesome. I came across another blog on the same Dubai topic as well with a difference that it covers Dubai Metro and talks about a utilitarian app that provides all the relevant info about Dubai stations.IT is named as DubaiMetroApp and you can check it out on WordPress.
Thanks hitech, I checked out that app a while ago (in fact I might even have it installed on my phone) but it didn’t seem to do much. I’ll go check it again though as maybe they have updated it since 🙂
