Excerpt from Wikipedia

The Purple Line (Arabic: المسار البنفسجي) or Line 6, also known as Violet Line, is one of the six lines in the Riyadh Metro network in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It runs in a half-ring from King Abdullah Financial District, passing Imam Muhammad ibn Saud Islamic University, and ending at Prince Saad Ibn Abdulrahman Al Awal Road. It will be mostly elevated except along Sheikh Hasan Bin Husein Bin Ali Street. The line has 11 stations with 3 interchange stations.

It was built by a consortium of FCC, Atkins, Alstom, Samsung C&T, Strukton and TYPSA (Tecnica Y Proyectos).
