10/3/24, 10:49 AM                       Dubai: Salik Denies Viral Rumours Of 'Dynamic' Toll Fees Of Up To Dh8
        The viral post listed time slots and corresponding amounts and said, "Be prepared to say
        goodbye to AED 4 Salik rates".


        It claimed toll fees would be "0 AED from 3am to 5am" and "8 AED from 3pm to 7pm". These

        details, however, are not true, Salik said.


        “We strongly advise customers and shareholders to refer exclusively to official sources, the

        DFM and Salik website (), for any official announcements or updates," the company's CEO
        said.


        “Salik is fully committed to adhering to the disclosure and transparency guidelines set by the
        Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) and DFM. As always, any significant information

        will be promptly shared with the market first once confirmed and finalised.”

        Meanwhile, the 10th Salik gate in Dubai – located in Al Safa South, between Al Meydan Street
        and Umm Al Sheif Street – is now up but not yet operational.


        The other new Salik – the ninth toll gate – is located on Business Bay Crossing along Al Khail

        Road.


        Haddad confirmed to Khaleej Times in an exclusive interview in early September that the two
        new toll gates will be operational by the end of November.


        A subsequent announcement will be issued to the public by Dubai's Roads and Transport

        Authority and Salik PJSC prior to the commencement of operations,” he added.


        Last year, about 593 million journeys went through Salik's toll gates. From January to June
        this year, 238.5 million trips passed through the eight toll gates, resulting in Dh1.1 billion half-

        year revenue, up by 5.6 per cent from the same period last year.
