930 Bus Route Riyadh: A Local Line in Al-Aqeek and Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat

930 Bus Route Riyadh: A Local Line in Al-Aqeek and Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat

Route 930 is a local line documented only in the Royal Commission’s 2024 station dataset. It is not named in KSA Expats’ route list, Life in Saudi Arabia’s list, or Time Out Riyadh’s BRT coverage, so no source gives its origin, destination, fare, frequency or journey time.

What the dataset shows is 21 stations across the following groups: Abdullah Al Kharji (1), Aous Bin Awf (2), Abdullah Bin Shihaiween (5), At Tahliyah (1), Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat (6), Al-Aqeek (6). The biggest group is Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat and Al-Aqeek, 6 stations each, and the stations sit within a box 1.9 km north-south by 1.6 km east-west, centred on the Al-Aqeek and Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat area.

Because no route list names this line, this guide sticks to what the station data actually supports and does not invent an origin, a destination or a stop order. Confirm the route and its current status in the Riyadh Bus app before planning a trip around it.

Route 930 Details

Stations and Stop Order on the 930

The stations fall within a box 1.9 km north-south by 1.6 km east-west, and Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat and Al-Aqeek, 6 stations each. RCRC’s sequence numbers for this line do not form a clean chain, so no stop-by-stop order can be derived from the dataset; the groups are listed in the stops field as an approximate arrangement only.

Shelter types on this route are mostly basic: 21 feeder poles. Development-stage tags break down as 15 stations at stage 3, 5 beyond stage 5.2 and 1 at stage 2. The dataset describes the network as planned once fully developed, so a listed station is not proof that it is in service today.

With one direction listed and no named origin or destination, this guide cannot say where the route starts, where it ends, or whether it loops back. Anyone relying on this route should confirm the current path directly in the Riyadh Bus app.

Fare and Payment

The standard Riyadh fare applies here as on every other route: SAR 4 for a 2-hour pass (SAR 10 First Class), rising to SAR 20 for 3 days, SAR 40 for 7 days and SAR 140 for 30 days, all valid across both bus and metro. No source publishes a fare specific to this route, and none gives a frequency or journey time either, so check all three in the Riyadh Bus app.

How to Ride the 930 Bus

1. Look for a station in the Al-Bahar Al-Mutawasat and Al-Aqeek group, the largest on the RCRC list for this line.
2. Open the Riyadh Bus app and search for Route 930 directly, since it does not appear in any general route list reviewed for this guide.
3. Pay with a Darb card, a loaded pass, or a Mada/credit card tap, as shown in the app.
4. Confirm your direction and destination with the driver or on the app display, since the dataset does not name either end of this route.
