Dubai extends truck movement exemption 'until further notice'

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) and Dubai Police have announced that trucks will continue to be permitted to use all Dubai roads 24|7 until "further notice" to boost supply chain operations.

In a post on social media platform X, the authorities said it has "extended the truck movement permit, allowing trucks to operate across Dubai roads around the clock until further notice".

The move aims to boost economic and commercial activity and help transport and logistics companies operate efficiently, enhancing Dubai’s logistical readiness.

Restrictions remain at the Airport Tunnel and Al Shindagha Tunnel.

Dubai first eased restrictions on trucks on March 2, and extended the decision until March 22.
