The Integrated Transport Centre Announces the Addition of Two New Gates to the Darb Toll Gate System in Abu Dhabi
(MENAFN- ITC Media) Abu Dhabi on Thursday, 23 April 2026 – The Integrated Transport Centre (ITC), an affiliate of the Department of Municipalities and Transport, has announced the addition of two new gates to the Darb Toll Gate System in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, in a step aimed at enhancing traffic flow on main roads, improving the efficiency of road network usage, and reducing congestion, particularly during peak hours. The two gates will be implemented and operated in collaboration with Q-Mobility.
The ITC stated that the two gates are located on Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Street in Ghantoot and on Wahat Al Karama Street at the entrance and exit of Sheikh Zayed Street. The gates will commence operations on 4 May 2026 and will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The ITC further stated that a toll fee of AED 4 will be applied per crossing, with the continued exemption of one vehicle for the following categories: senior citizens, people of determination, low-income citizens, and retired citizens, in accordance with the approved toll system in the Emirate.
The ITC confirmed that the selection of the two gate locations was based on specialised traffic studies that took into account traffic density, mobility patterns, and the availability of alternative roads in their vicinity, as follows:
•Al Qurm Toll Gate: Located on Wahat Al Karama Street at the entrance and exit of Sheikh Zayed Street. The location allows drivers to use Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Street or Arabian Gulf Street as alternative routes.
•Ghantoot Toll Gate: Located on Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Street in Ghantoot. Road users may opt for Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Street as an alternative route.
The Integrated Transport Centre affirmed that the addition of the two gates comes within efforts to develop the road network in the Emirate in line with urban expansion and increasing traffic movement. The Centre will continue monitoring the impact of the new gates through periodic reviews to measure outcomes and analyse usage patterns, ensuring the effective implementation of the system in accordance with the approved traffic requirements.
