Since the kick-off of the AFC Asian Cup 2023 on January 12, 2024, Qatar's public transportation system has witnessed an unprecedented surge in usage. As of January 23, 2024, public buses have played a crucial role in facilitating the movement of over 1.3 million passengers, marking a significant milestone in the tournament's transportation strategy.
Public Bus Utilization: The Ministry of Transportation proudly shared this achievement on its social media platforms, revealing that "1,365,659 passengers have utilized public buses and the buses dedicated to the Asian Cup 2023 since the commencement of the tournament up until Tuesday, January 23." This underscores the effectiveness of Qatar's commitment to providing efficient and accessible transportation options during major sporting events.
Doha Metro and Lusail Tram Contribution: In addition to the remarkable bus statistics, Qatar Rail reported substantial success in accommodating passengers through the Doha Metro and Lusail Tram networks. From January 12 to 21, 2024, these rail systems effectively transported 2,164,211 passengers. The integration of various modes of public transportation ensures a comprehensive and seamless experience for spectators and residents alike.

By providing reliable and accessible public transportation, Qatar continues to set benchmarks for hosting successful and inclusive tournaments.
