==Overview==
The Cairo Metro is run by the National Authority for Tunnels. The lines use standard gauge (). On all Cairo metro trains, the middle two cars (4th and 5th) of each train are reserved for women (the 5th car becomes a mixed use after 21:00). There are also blue signs at every station that signify the position of these cars. These cars are used as an option for women who do not wish to ride with men in the same car; however, women can still ride other cars freely. This policy was introduced for protection of women from sexual harassment by men.
As of 2013, the metro carried nearly 4 million passengers per day.〔
