The agreement will add around 7,500 spaces to Parkin's portfolio.
The new lots, located in Al Sufouh Gardens, Arjan, Dubailand Residence Complex, Jaddaf Waterfront, Liwan 1&2, and Majan, will be operational from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Monday to Saturday, with Parkin responsible for issuing fines for non-compliance with parking laws and regulations.
The company will manage the spaces for four years, with operations expected to be in place by the end of July.
