During the Eid Al Fitr holidays, parking will be free for Abu Dhabi residents, the Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) of the Department of Municipalities and Transport announced on Wednesday.
From Thursday, April 20, through the end of the holiday, there will be no surface parking costs for Mawaqif. The Musaffah M-18 truck parking lot won't have any fees for the Eid holiday, according to the ITC.
Starting on Thursday, the Darb toll gate system will not be charged throughout the holiday. Following the Eid vacation, peak hours (between 7am and 9am and between 5pm and 7pm) will once again be subject to toll gate costs.
The ITC requests that motorists refrain from parking in off-limits locations and obstructing traffic. They were admonished to park legally in the allocated spots and to refrain from doing so in residential spaces between the hours of 9 p.m. and 8 a.m.
From Thursday, April 20, till the conclusion of the holiday, Customers' Happiness Centres in Abu Dhabi will be closed. Customers can still apply for ITC services online through the TAMM platform, the Darbi and Darb websites and apps, and the ITC website.
Customers can make service requests around-the-clock by calling the Department of Municipalities and Transport's unified service support centre at 800850 or the taxi call centre at 600535353.
Public bus services in the emirate will run on their regular timetable during the holiday, with an increase in regional bus routes according on demand. Additionally, in order to enhance the number of intercity bus services in a way that is appropriate to the anticipated rise in demand for the services, the ITC has worked with operators from the private sector.
Additionally, throughout the holiday, the Abu Dhabi Express and Abu Dhabi Link bus services will run from 6 am to 11 pm.
