DUBAI: Salik PJSC
has announced the activation of two new toll gates at Business Bay Crossing and Al Safa South on
Sheikh Zayed Road, set to go live on 24 November.
Part of a strategic move to optimise Dubai’s road network and ease congestion, the new tolls mark an
expansion that brings the city’s total number of Salik gates to ten.
This development aligns with the Roads and Transport Authority’s (RTA) Al Khail Road Development
Project, which recently enhanced major road infrastructure across several critical locations, including Al
Jaddaf, Business Bay, Zaabeel, and Al Quoz 1.
“This project included the construction of five bridges extending 3,300 metres and the expansion of
6,820 metres of road lanes across seven different locations along Al Khail Road,” noted the RTA in its
recent statement. “Serving 1.5 million people, the project has reduced travel time by 30 per cent and
increased the capacity of intersections and bridges by approximately 19,600 vehicles per hour.”
