A new feeder bus system could be introduced to support Bahrain’s upcoming metro project, a top official has revealed.
Transportation and Telecommunications Minister Dr Shaikh Abdulla bin Ahmed Al Khalifa said the buses would run on short, frequent routes and link residential areas with major metro stations.
He added that the services would be timed to match metro schedules, helping reduce waiting times and making travel smoother for passengers.
The minister outlined these updates while responding in writing to questions from Shura Council financial and economic affairs committee chairman Khalid Al Maskati.
Describing the electric metro network as ‘one of the most important strategic projects under the ministry’s purview’, Dr Shaikh Abdulla said preparations are underway for the first phase route in line with the approved masterplan.
