10 Bus Route Riyadh: From Al Batha Out to Khalid Bin Al Walid Road
Dear All, 10 Bus Route Riyadh – Route 10 KSA runs from the Al Batha area out to Khalid Bin Al Walid Road on the north-east side of Riyadh, crossing Al-Malaz, Al Ahsa’, Makkah Al Mukarramah and Khurais along the way.
The end of the line is described three ways. KSA Expats’ January 2025 list gives Al Batha to Al Hamra, Life in Saudi Arabia says Al Quds District, and Edarabia’s older pattern names Al Rawdah District after stops at the Central Post, King Faisal bin Fahd Stadium, Riyadh Zoo and the Ministry of the National Guard. The Royal Commission’s 2024 dataset settles where its stations are: the north-eastern end is a terminal-type station named Khalid Bin Alwaleed Road A, the only station of that shelter type on this line.
That makes Route 10 a good example of why a bus number alone is not a destination. Use the station groups below to work out whether your stop is on the line, and check the Riyadh Bus app for the live destination.

Stations and Stop Order on the 10
Khalid Bin Al Walid is the largest group in the dataset with 13 of the 49 stations, followed by Salahuddin Al Ayubi with 8 and Al Ahsa’ and Makkah Al Mukarramah with 7 each. The stations sit within a box 13.5 km north-south by 7.0 km east-west, and the corridor bends from the south-west towards the north-east.
Only some groups appear in both directions: King Abdulaziz, Al-Malaz, Al Ahsa’ and the terminal station appear in direction 1 only, so the two directions are not perfect mirrors. RCRC’s sequence numbers do not form one clean chain for this line, so the group order shown is a corridor order taken from the coordinates and starting from Al Batha, which the named sources give as the origin.
The dataset’s development-stage tags are worth reading with care: 20 of the 49 stations are tagged beyond stage 5.2, and 18 are tagged stage 2. The dataset describes the network as planned once fully developed, so a listed station is not proof that it is open today.
Fare and Payment
KSA Expats lists a 2-hour pass at SAR 4. With a bus only every 20 minutes on weekdays and every 40 minutes on Fridays in Life in Saudi Arabia’s January 2025 listing, this is one of the lower-frequency routes in this batch, so a pass that covers a connection can matter if you miss a departure. Confirm the price in the Riyadh Bus app.
How to Ride the 10 Bus
- Start at an Al Batha station, or at one of the Al-Malaz, Al Ahsa’ or Khurais stations if you are joining mid-route.
- Open the Riyadh Bus app and check the next departure, since the interval is longer than on the other routes in this batch.
- Pay with your pass or the payment option shown in the app.
- Alight at the Khalid Bin Al Walid station nearest you, or ride to the Khalid Bin Alwaleed Road A terminal at the end.
