The Orange Line (Arabic: المسار البرتقالي) or Line 3 is one of the six lines being developed in the Riyadh Metro network in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The line will run east–west along Al-Madinah Al Munawwarah and Prince Saad Bin Abdulrahman Al Awal Roads, starting in the west near Jeddah Expressway and ending in the east near the National Guard camp of Khashm El Aan. It will have 21 stations and 2 interchange stations, covering 40.7 km.
It will be mostly elevated along the western part of Al-Madinah Al Munawwarah Road, then underground in tunnels in the central section, and generally at grade along Prince Saad Bin Abdulrahman Road.
