Dubai’s toll gate system needs a dynamic pricing system as studies show that the Dh4 rate
lost momentum and impact on traffic, a senior official said.
“For dynamic pricing, there was a statement from RTA earlier this year talking about
the possibility of implementing dynamic pricing in the future. It didn’t set the time or date for
the start of implementation. But the studies show that Dh4 lost a lot of its momentum and
impact on traffic. There is a need to apply dynamic pricing, which varies depending on the
time of the day. That also suggests there will be an exemption of tariff during certain times of
the day,” said Ibrahim Alhaddad, CEO of Salik.
