As insurgency is in the air of Arab world, UAE government is doing its best to keep the nationals calm and not getting excited about change.
Recently, RTA announced that UAE nationals who own properties within current paid parking zones in Dubai are to be given free permits.
The RTA said it has developed a parking fee exemption system (L category) for Emiratis who would be allocated free parking permits depending on the size of the property they own.
One permit would be issued to the occupant of a one- bedroom flat or studio, two permits would be issued for a two-bedroom flat and so one.
A further parking schemes will see Emiratis who live in villas and houses in high parking-occupancy areas being given the opportunity to book a parking slot near their house.
The parking space will be marked with a yellow frame and the number of the property will be written inside it.
A V-category permit will be issued and has to be displayed inside the vehicle occupying the parking space.
A statement from the RTA said applicants for a V-category permit must be a UAE national who lives in a house or villa only (not an apartment) located in a high parking-occupancy residential area.
Applicants for L category free parking permits must also be UAE nationals living in the vicinity of the paid parking zones in Dubai.
