Motorists who will use Sheikh Zayed Road where the toll gates are located, at Garhoud Bridge and near the Mall of the Emirates, must apply for and buy the Salik welcome kit containing the Salik windshield tag from these outlets.
The welcome kit has instructions on how to install the tag on the windshield of the car and how the system works. When the system is officially activated on July 1st, it will deduct 4dhs from the sensor cards every time one drives through the city's electronic gates, explained Engineer Bin Adai. The RTA is educating the public on the toll system through its public campaign and has made available a dedicated toll free call center (800-72545) and website: www.salik.ae.
Salik is part of the RTA's traffic management strategy to reduce pressure on Dubai's road infrastructure, particularly in the city's downtown and other heavily trafficked areas, and reduce noise and air pollution.
