Abeer suggested: “Carpooling can be an excellent way to save on Salik and
fuel expenses. Instead of each colleague driving their own car to the office,
they can share one vehicle. For example, they could rotate carpooling every 10
days. This way, the costs are divided among several people, making it more

manageable.”

“Another option is to move closer to your office. Living nearer can significantly
reduce travel time and expenses, including Salik charges and fuel costs. I
hope that private sector companies will also recognise the financial impact of

these new Salik gates and provide additional allowances to help cover the
extra expenses,” she added.
