The Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) of the Department of Municipalities and Transport in Abu Dhabi has announced a series of benefits for residents and commuters in honour of the upcoming public holiday on September 29. The ITC aims to facilitate travel and enhance convenience during this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free Surface Parking: <\/strong>Commencing from Friday and extending until 7:59 a.m. on Saturday, surface parking across Abu Dhabi will be completely free of charge during the holiday period. Additionally, those utilizing the Musaffah M-18 truck parking lot can avail themselves of free parking throughout the official holiday. It is important to note that parking in residential spaces is discouraged from 9 p.m. to 8 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
