The Loop Line (Arabic: خط الحلقة khaṭṭ al-ḥalqah) is one of eleven operational lines of the Nasser City Metro, the rapid transit network serving the Arab Union's capital Nasser City and the surrounding urban area. The Loop Line is so named due to its circular shape, and thus has no defined termini, with trains continually operating in the same direction unlike the other lines. The Loop Line train leaves Union Station, stops at 16 other stations as it circles the central and southern thirds of the metropolitan area, before returning to Union Station where a single loop is completed.
