The Riyadh Metro marked a remarkable milestone with the birth of the first baby born within the metro network, which took place at Al-Andalus Station—a rare and heartwarming moment that drew wide attention.
In recognition of the event, the metro announced it would award the newborn’s family two “Darb” first-class passes valid for a full year, celebrating the occasion and highlighting the system’s readiness and integrated services.
The incident underscores the efficiency of operational and safety teams and their ability to respond swiftly to emergencies, while reflecting the human-centered approach embedded in the Kingdom’s modern transport projects. It also reinforces Riyadh Metro’s role as a safe, well-prepared environment that places people and their experiences at the heart of urban mobility.
