About Jeddah Road

Riyadh's Orange Line begins here, at the far western edge of the city, where Madinah Munawwarah Road runs out towards the highway to Jeddah — the road that gives the station its name. Jeddah Road is an elevated station, carried on the viaduct above the carriageway, and it is the western terminus of Line 3, the longest route on the network at 40.7 km (25 mi). Every eastbound train starts its run here, threading through the western suburbs before diving under the old city at Qasr Al Hokm, then continuing out to Al Malaz, An Naseem and Khashm Al An at the eastern end. For residents of the western districts it offers a straight run into the centre without touching the traffic on the road below, and because trains form up at the platform rather than passing through, passengers boarding here almost always find a seat. Line 3 is the only line serving the station.

It is the end of Line 3; the next station is Tuwaiq, towards Khashm Al An.

It is an elevated station and runs to the network hours: 5:30 am to midnight Saturday to Thursday, and from 10:00 am on Friday. The SAR 4 two-hour ticket covers the metro and the buses. Below you will find the station on the map, journey times, interchanges and facilities.

Frequently asked questions

Jeddah Road is on Line 3 (Orange) of the Riyadh Metro, which runs from Jeddah Road to Khashm Al An.
It is elevated, sitting on a viaduct above the road, like every station on the western stretch of the Orange Line. Line 3 stays on the viaduct as far as Al Jarradiyah, then drops into a deep tunnel from Courts Complex onwards to pass beneath central Riyadh and its old quarters.
Take any eastbound Line 3 train and stay on it — Qasr Al Hokm is on the same line, in the heart of old Riyadh, and no change is needed. It is also a shared interchange station where Line 3 meets Line 1 (Blue), so you can carry on across the network from the same station.
Yes. Jeddah Road is the western end of Line 3, so every departure heads east — through the western districts, under the old city, then on to Al Malaz, An Naseem and finally Khashm Al An, the eastern terminus. The full run covers 40.7 km (25 mi), the longest line on the network.
Service at Jeddah Road station runs to the Riyadh Metro network hours: from 05:30 to 00:00 Saturday to Thursday, and on Friday from 10:00 to 00:00. Hours change during Ramadan and the Eid holidays and are announced at the time — check the schedule page before you travel.
Yes. There are ticket vending machines (TVMs) at Riyadh Metro stations, and you can buy a card or top it up there or at a ticket office. Note that the darb app does not top up the card balance — full details on the darb card page.
