While traveling to the northeast of the Expo 2020 site I easily found the Expo 2020 metro station. The station is the extension of Route 2020 and has the main purpose to connect the Jebel Ali metro to the Expo 2020 site. In other words, a link was created on June 1st, 2021, to central Dubai with the Expo 2020.
