The decision exempts the multi-level parking terminals.

The revised service timings apply to customer happiness centres, paid parking zones, public buses, metro, tram, marine transport, and service provider centres (technical testing of vehicles).
RTA also called on community members to comply with the health precautionary measures.

Dubai Metro (Red and Green Lines) will run from 5am to 1am (the following day), and the Dubai Tram will be in service from 6am am 1am (the next day).

The Hijri Islamic calendar depends on the rotation of the moon around the sun, and therefore the beginning of the Hijri month is determined by the appearance of the moon.

Happy Hijri New year!
