Dubai has taken a major leap toward becoming a smarter, more connected city with the launch of the region’s first fully autonomous, AI-powered parking solution in residential communities. This initiative is a result of a landmark partnership between smart parking solutions provider, Parkonic, toll gate operator, Salik, and global investment company, Dubai Holding.
The new system will be rolled out across more than 36,000 on-street and off-street parking spaces in some of Dubai’s most iconic communities. Residents and visitors in these communities will be able to enjoy a ticket-less, barrier-free, and fully automated parking experience. The integration of Parkonic’s AI technology with Salik’s payment infrastructure ensures instant, cashless transactions.
This means no more paper tickets, queues, or fines for overstaying. The system detects your vehicle, manages your entry and exit, and bills you automatically. This smart mobility upgrade supports Dubai’s Smart City 2030 and Net Zero goals by helping reduce congestion and emissions while making daily travel more efficient.
