Dubai’s toll operator Salik has announced revised toll rates for the holy month of Ramadan 2026 to align with expected changes in traffic patterns and the city’s adjusted work and school schedules during the fasting period. Under the updated structure, toll charges will be AED 6 during peak hours (9 am to 5 pm), AED 4 during low-peak times (7 am–9 am and 5 pm–2 am), and free between 2 am and 7 am Monday to Saturday. On Sundays (excluding public holidays and major events), all daytime crossings will be charged at AED 4, with no charge overnight. The start date of Ramadan will be confirmed after moon sighting proceedings by the UAE’s official committee.
The article also highlights Salik’s broader growth and recent developments, including a new 10-year agreement with Dubai Airports to enable seamless e-wallet parking payments across Dubai International Airport’s parking areas. It notes that Salik reported a 33 % rise in net profit in 2025, driven partly by the introduction of variable pricing and increased traffic flow from new toll gates.
