The rating comes as part of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) programme

Seven metro stations on Route 2020 have been awarded the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold Certification, according to Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).

“The US Green Buildings Council had confirmed that the RTA has the world’s highest number of LEED v4 BD+C: NC certified Transit projects. This achievement reflects the authority’s standing commitment to leadership and excellence in delivering the Route 2020 project for the region and the world over,” explained Abdul Redha Abu Al Hasan, executive director of Rail Planning and Projects Developments at the RTA’s Rail Agency.

He added, “This achievement is credited to selecting the best locations for stations and implementing strategies for saving the consumption of power and water.
