The authorities announced that Blue Board’s 7-day paid parking zone would be active during the holiday period.
Residents have been urged to avoid fines by paying attention to the parking signs during these holidays.
On the other hand, based on the vision and directives of His Highness Dr. Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, the authorities announced the provision of 1,146 free annual parking subscriptions for the elderly.
