The nol card of Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is now valid for paying fares of The Palm Monorail belonging to Nakheel, one of the biggest property developers not only in the UAE but also across the region.

The CEO of Corporate Technology Support Services Sector Mohammed Yousef Al Mudharreb confirmed that residents, visitors and tourists of The Palm could now use nol gold, silver or blue cards to pay for their daily journeys on The Palm Monorail.

“This initiative supports the efforts to integrate the public transport networks and offer seamless mobility journeys for riders all over Dubai. It also fits with nol digital strategy aimed to expand the use of nol cards in all services, products and solutions of external partners from both the public and private sectors,”

he commented.

“It also enhances the experience of nol card users by offering them multiple services via a single card. The move boosts the connection of public transport means and serves Dubai’s transit networks, which contributes to realizing the first and last-mile strategy. The step adds to RTA’s strategy to broaden cooperation with the private sector in line with the top global standards and practices.

“Before the launch of this initiative, an agreement was signed to expand the cooperation between RTA and Nakheel on the sidelines of the UITP MENA Congress and Exhibition held last February,”

added Al Mudharreb.
