About Salik

Above and Beyond Urban Mobility

As the exclusive operator of Dubai’s advanced tolling system, Salik works in close partnership with the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) to keep the city moving. Its world‑class, technology‑driven tolling and parking solutions network is designed around user convenience, reliability, and fair, transparent charges.

In Arabic, ‘Salik’ (سالك) means ‘open’ or ‘seamless’, capturing the idea of a smooth, obstacle‑free journey. Staying true to its name, Salik enables fast and easy travel for 4.7 million vehicles in Dubai through free‑flow tolling, automatic number plate recognition, and simple digital payment options.

Salik goes above and beyond toll collection. Its free‑flow gates help reduce congestion, fuel consumption, and GHG emissions. Of its ten gates, two are powered primarily by solar energy, and one is partially solar‑powered. The Company supports workforce diversity and community initiatives and, since joining the United Nations Global Compact in July 2024, has aligned its practices with the Compact’s Ten Principles and the UAE’s wider sustainability agenda.
