Dubai: Changes in taxi fare, nol card top-ups; new
parking company explained
Your ultimate guide to all the changes in public transport system announced recently

When Erica, a Dubai resident, booked a taxi from Global Village to Al Barsha, the fare was higher than
when she took a cab from home to the family destination. This was because of the ‘dynamic fare’ that
was made applicable on both regular metered and ride-hailing taxi services.
Several changes have been implemented in Dubai’s public transport system, including raising the
minimum nol card top-up at Metro stations. A new company has also been announced that will oversee
operations of public parking spaces, while parking at Dubai Mall will soon become a paid service, using a
barrier-free system implemented by toll gate operator Salik.
