All Pink Line stations are to be operated in this phase as well, from Legtaifiya to Seef Lusail – North, except for Al Sa’ad Plaza, which will come to service later. The Pink Line service in operation will include 10 stations. In total, the number of new stations coming into service rises to 14, taking the total number of operational stations in Lusail Tram to 21.
