Drivers will be able to pass through Salik toll gates free of charge during specific hours.
During Ramadan, Salik toll gates in Dubai will adopt a revised variable pricing structure to accommodate fasting schedules and ease traffic flow.
Key changes include:
- 2am – 7am daily: Free passage, allowing those observing Ramadan to attend sunrise prayers (Fajr) without paying tolls.
- 7am – 9am weekdays: Toll fee reduced to Dhs4 (down from Dhs6) during the morning rush hour.
- 9am – 5pm weekdays: Peak hours toll remains Dhs6.
- 5pm – 2am weekdays: Evening toll lowered to Dhs4, extending the period of lower charges compared to the rest of the year.
- Sundays: Toll is Dhs4 from 7am to 2am, with free passage between 2am and 7am.
This structure simplifies peak charges into a single eight-hour block during the day, rather than the two four-hour blocks used the rest of the year, and aligns fees with Ramadan routines for Iftar and Suhoor.
