Everything we know so far about Dubai Metro's underground Blue Line
whatson.ae
All the information on the proposed new Dubai Metro Line...

Looks like they plan to have the blue line extension ready to go in 2029 mentioned in the embedded video not the article.

The plan is to have 55% of the population within 800 meters of public transportation stations by 2040.

A little bit old, but I always like to watch the video linked below: Youtube - Dubai Progress by MetroCucumber

    No worries.

    From the link you posted, what they did to address those concerns:

    In November 2020, the United Arab Emirates overhauled its legal system to loosen restrictions on alcohol consumption, permit cohabitation, and increase penalty for honor killings, among other changes

    Not that I think that those things were the big changes, but the headline articles about what we find strange (in the western parts of the world) hasn’t been there, except for the guy who got his fine upgraded to jail time for the incident with airport staff.
