  "account": "Motorists passing through Salik toll gates on Sunday, November 15, will encounter variable toll rates due to the Dubai T100 Triathlon taking place in Dubai. Salik announced the revised rates on its official Instagram post. While Sundays typically have a flat toll of Dh4 per crossing, including VAT, this Sunday will see higher rates during peak times.\n\nFrom 6am to 10am, motorists will face the peak rate of Dh6 per crossing. However, the evening peak period from 4pm to 8pm is lower at Dh4, compared to the usual Dh6 on weekdays. For low-peak hours, from 10am to 4pm and 8pm to 1am, the toll remains at Dh4. Additionally, crossings between 1am and 6am will be free.\n\nWith VAT, the cost of a Dh6 crossing becomes Dh6.30, and a Dh4 crossing becomes Dh4.20. Previously, motorists paid Dh6 during morning and evening peak hours from 6am to 10am and 4pm to 8pm, and Dh4 during low-peak hours on Mondays to Saturdays. The variable pricing system was implemented on January 31, 2025, replacing the earlier flat rate of Dh4 per crossing.\n\nSimilar changes were made for other major events. Earlier this month, variable toll rates were in effect on Sunday, November 1, during the Dubai Ride event, which turned Sheikh Zayed Road into a cycling route as part of the Dubai Fitness Challenge, running until November 29. Drivers planning to use Sheikh Zayed Road on Sunday morning should check the timings before setting out.",
