Haramain authority allows electric cart bookings with GCC mobile number
Pilgrims can now reserve electric carts at the Two Holy Mosques using a GCC mobile number or email, the Haramain authority has announced.
The Grand Mosque's General Authority for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques has announced that pilgrims can now reserve electric carts for use within Saudi Arabia. Pilgrims can make these reservations using a Gulf mobile number or a personal email address on the unified mobility platform. The authority offers both electric and manual carts to assist pilgrims, Umrah performers, and the elderly in performing tawaf, sa'i, and other movements around the clock.
The Grand Mosque provides 5,000 standard carts, and there are over 6,000 licensed cart pushers under supervision, all of whom have obtained work permits after meeting the required criteria. The service is monitored around the clock, with designated areas for both electric and manual carts, as well as for cart pushers, located in the southern, western, and eastern courtyards of the mosque.
Additionally, golf carts are stationed in specific locations, such as the internal Ajyad Bridge and near the Shubaikiyah Bridge. These initiatives aim to enhance the comfort of visitors, particularly the elderly and those with disabilities, and to facilitate the performance of religious duties during the Hajj and Umrah seasons.
