Darb cost per trip
AED 0.00
Only count crossings that fall inside a charging window (see below) — free crossings cost nothing and shouldn’t be included.
Rate used: AED 4 per chargeable crossing, no daily or monthly cap (removed 1 September 2025). Six gates total: the original four — Sheikh Zayed Bridge, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Bridge, Al Maqtaa Bridge, Mussafah Bridge — charge only Monday–Saturday, 7–9am and 3–7pm (free all day Sunday, public holidays, and outside those hours). The two newer gates, Ghantoot and Al Qurm (activated 4 May 2026), charge 24/7 with no exemptions. See our data sources.
How Darb pricing works
Darb charges a flat AED 4 per crossing — there’s no peak/off-peak price difference like Salik. What varies is whether a crossing is charged at all. The four original gates only charge during weekday peak windows; the two newest gates charge every crossing, any time.
