The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) rolled out a new smart parking card service to replace the manual process of transferring seasonal card from one vehicle to another when using public parking.
Engineer Maitha bin Adai, CEO of RTA’s Traffic and Roads Agency said that the move is part of Dubai’s effort to “migrate from the e-Government to Smart Government”.
“RTA always is keen to transform its systems and services into smart systems in keeping with Dubai’s drive to migrate from the e-Government to Smart Government. The drive is in line with the directions of ranking Dubai as the smartest city in the world,” Engineer Maitha bin Adai said.
The new service will also allow seasonal parking card owners and users “to activate the vehicle using such parking space at any time, and manage their accounts.”
The service is available at any time through the RTA Dubai app and seeks to improve parking system in the emirate.
