151 Bus Route Riyadh: The Madina Munwarah Road Line to Ar Rawabi

151 Bus Route Riyadh: The Madina Munwarah Road Line to Ar Rawabi

Route 151 is a line in the eastern half of Riyadh, running along Madina Munwarah Road through the Al-Jazeerah and Ibn Al Ameed groups to Haroon Rasheed and Ar-Rawabi.

Life in Saudi Arabia describes it as running from Ali Ibn Abi Talib Street to Fahya, with landmarks that include Riyadh Rail Station, As-Sinaiyah, Al-Jazeerah Park, Ibn Al Ameed, Haroon Rasheed, Dawak Medical Complex and Boudle Al Fahya Hotel. The Royal Commission’s 2024 data confirms the middle of that list: its station groups are Al Kharj, As-Sinaiyah, Madina Munwarah, Al-Jazeerah, Ibn Al Ameed, Haroon Rasheed, Ar-Rawabi and As-Saadah.

KSA Expats’ January 2025 list of operating routes does not include Route 151, so treat current service as unverified and check the Riyadh Bus app. This guide sets out what the dataset and the older list can and cannot confirm.

Route 151 Details

Stations and Stop Order on the 151

Madina Munwarah is the largest group with 15 of the 52 stations, followed by Haroon Rasheed with 12, Ar-Rawabi with 7, Al-Jazeerah with 6, and As-Sinaiyah and Ibn Al Ameed with 4 each. Four groups appear in only one direction: Al Kharj, As-Sinaiyah and As-Saadah in direction 1, and Talha Bin Obaidallah in direction 2.

The dataset’s coordinates sit within a box 7.7 km north-south by 8.5 km east-west. The order shown here runs west to east from coordinates, because RCRC’s sequence numbers do not form a clean chain. The Al Kharj group here sits at a different location from Route 11’s Al Kharj terminal.

The stage tags are 26 stations at stage 2 and 23 beyond stage 5.2, with only a handful elsewhere. That makes Route 151 one of the more uniformly tagged lines, but the dataset does not say which stations are open.

Fare and Payment

KSA Expats lists a 2-hour pass at SAR 4. Route 151’s stations are mostly open shelters and feeder poles, unlike the numbered BRT stations on Routes 11 to 13, so it is worth checking the app for a departure before you walk to a stop. Confirm the price in the Riyadh Bus app.

How to Ride the 151 Bus

1. Choose your boarding group: Madina Munwarah or Al-Jazeerah for the western half, Haroon Rasheed or Ar-Rawabi for the eastern half.
2. Open the Riyadh Bus app and check that Route 151 is running, since it is missing from KSA Expats’ January 2025 list.
3. Pay with your pass or the payment option shown in the app.
4. Alight at the station nearest your destination; check the direction first, as As-Sinaiyah and Al Kharj appear in direction 1 only.
