Dear Mr.H0riz0n,

The first line opened in 1989 (there is no object – OPEN here is INTRANSITIVE),
The first line was opened in 1989 (this the passive form – OPEN here is TRANSITIVE),
The government opened the first line in 1989 (the firstline is the object – OPEN here is TRANSITIVE),
It is not a shop or a restaurant. It is something starting operating as in definition 6. Definition 6 used it both active and passive in the very same words but in the present: opens and is opened

Best Regards

Thank you Mr Essam
I know the matter we are discussing is not : which is right and which is wrong?
I know both are correct.
What I want to say is that using it transitively is more common.
