Salik Denies New Pricing Rumors Circulating Online

In response to a viral post spreading misinformation, Dubai's toll operator, Salik, has firmly denied any plans for the implementation of dynamic pricing for toll gates in the emirate. The misleading information, which quickly gained traction across social media, claimed that significant changes to toll fees were on the horizon. Salik’s CEO, Ibrahim Sultan Al Haddad, has assured the public that these claims are unfounded.

Salik Clears the Air

The viral post in question laid out supposed time slots and toll charges, claiming “Be prepared to say goodbye to AED 4 Salik rates.” The note included details like zero charges between 3 AM and 5 AM, and higher rates of AED 8 from 3 PM to 7 PM. However, Salik’s CEO has been clear: none of these details are true.

"We wish to clarify that the publications being circulated on some social media platforms are inaccurate," Al Haddad said in a statement published by the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) on Wednesday.
