Dubai has implemented new changes to its paid parking rules during the holy month of Ramadan. Starting this year, drivers will receive two hours of free parking each day throughout Ramadan.
Details of the New Parking Rules
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) of Dubai announced these changes as part of their annual service adjustments to accommodate the needs of residents and visitors during Ramadan. The revised parking hours aim to:
- Make it easier to move around the city during the holy month.
- Support community activities by providing more convenient parking.
- Reduce the financial and logistical stress related to parking while attending prayers, social visits, and evening shopping.
Impact and Recommendations
This initiative reflects Dubai’s commitment to enhancing residents’ quality of life and honoring cultural traditions. Drivers are advised to:
- Check the updated parking timings and rules carefully to avoid fines.
- Take advantage of the two-hour free parking to visit local markets, mosques, and community events during Ramadan evenings.
These changes are expected to encourage greater community participation and ease of movement in the city during Ramadan.
