No more free parking in Dubai Mall: Salik to take charge

If you love to visit Dubai Mall for shopping, dining, or entertainment, get ready for a change in the parking system. Starting soon, there will be no more free parking at Dubai Mall, and instead, the parking will be managed by Salik.

Why the change?
Dubai Mall is a bustling hub with lots of visitors every day. To make sure parking spaces are well-organized and to improve the overall experience for everyone, the decision has been made to use Salik, a system that many people already know for toll collection on roads.

How does it work?
With Salik managing the parking system, visitors will need to pay for parking based on the time spent in the parking area. It’s like paying a toll, but for parking. The idea is to make sure there’s enough space for everyone and to encourage people to use parking efficiently.

1. Efficient Parking: Salik will help manage parking spaces more effectively, reducing congestion and making it easier for everyone to find a parking spot.
2. Fair Payment: The pay-as-you-go system means that you only pay for the time you spend in the parking area. This can be a fairer way of charging for parking compared to a flat fee.
3. Reducing Congestion: By encouraging efficient use of parking spaces, Salik aims to reduce traffic congestion in and around Dubai Mall, creating a smoother experience for visitors.

What should visitors do?
If you plan to visit Dubai Mall, be prepared for these changes. Make sure to check the updated parking rules and fees on the official Dubai Mall website or at the entrance to the parking area. This way, you’ll know what to expect and can plan your visit accordingly.
