Good news for residents visiting the emirate of Sharjah.

Sharjah City Municipality is rolling out the new feature giving motorists the option of booking a parking space for more than one hour via SMS.

The new feature will be available starting from Wednesday, December 12 for customers of Etisalat.

Originally, the service of booking a parking space had been valid for just one hour, to be renewed once.

The service aims to enhance motorists' parking utility and prevent fines from forgetting to renew or extend parking ticket validity.

You can book the parking space by sending a message to the number 5566 under this format: Plate source plate number number of hours.

The post instructs residents to visit shjmun.gov.ae or call 993 for more details.
