More paid parking spaces created"We have already started a new study on the parking needs of Dubai. Through this study, which will finish in July, Dubai's parking problems and needs will be studied.
Need I say anything?
"We have created the new paid parking zones after conducting comprehensive studies related to the parking needs of particular areas," said Mehdi Ali, Director of the Parking Department at the RTA.
A comprehensive study has already taken place - as a result of which they installed more parking meters, so what study - in which they will study- will finish in july?
"Projects to solve parking problems will be launched based on the results of the study," he said.
If parking meters were installed as a result of the comprehensive study, what are they gonna launch? parking city?
"Our objective is not to make money (pun intended??) but to provide facilities for traders and residents. Paid parking also helps prevent motorists from double parking, blocking spaces and parking on pavements," Ali said.
How many parking meters have prevented ppl from placing their cars a little above the rest?

Tickets to be renewed via mobile phones
"They won't have to rush to buy a new ticket. It will give them peace of mind and save them from unnecessary parking fines."
I'm really curious about this. Any Idea how this is gonna work out? How would the time on my ticket, lying on my dashboard, change while I renew it over the mobile?
