To ensure the efficiency of metro stations and their facilities, RTA has conducted a comprehensive series of operational tests. These tests encompassed various aspects, including platform doors, lifts, escalators, and other service facilities. Vital indicators of train power were also assessed to ensure smooth movement between metro stations. Moreover, service frequency trials, conducted without passengers, were carried out to verify the accuracy of metro journey times at the stations.
