All public parking spaces across Abu Dhabi will be free of charge to mark Commemoration Day and the country’s 49th National Day, the Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) of the Department of Municipalities and Transport in Abu Dhabi has announced.

Motorists in the capital emirate can park for free during the holiday period, starting Tuesday, December 1, 2020, until Saturday, December 5, 2020 at 7:59 am.

ITC urged the public to neither park vehicles in prohibited areas, nor block the traffic flow. It also called upon the public to adhere to the regulations regarding the resident permit parking bays from 9pm to 8am.
