Navigating the roads of Abu Dhabi has become more seamless, thanks to the DARB toll system. Whether you’re a resident or a visitor, understanding how and when toll charges apply is essential for avoiding fines and ensuring a smooth driving experience. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about DARB toll gate timings, locations, and best practices for staying toll-compliant.
What Are DARB Toll Gates?
DARB toll gates are part of Abu Dhabi’s traffic management system, designed to ease congestion and regulate the flow of vehicles during peak hours. Every time you pass under one of these gates during operational hours, your vehicle’s number plate is scanned, and a toll fee is deducted from your DARB account.
Key Toll Gate Locations:
- Sheikh Zayed Bridge
- Mussafah Bridge
- Sheikh Khalifa Bridge
- Al Maqtaa Bridge
These toll gates cover the main entry and exit routes on and off Abu Dhabi island, making them vital checkpoints for commuters.
