Setting the right course

Salik aspires to become a global leader in sustainable and smart mobility solutions. To achieve this vision, the Company benefits from the efforts of an independent Board of Directors — including experts who play a key role in shaping and developing Dubai’s infrastructure — along with a highly experienced executive team.

Ensuring access for everyone

Salik is strongly committed to diversity and inclusion, prioritising female employment and upholding a discrimination-free environment for its multinational workforce. Extending these values to the broader community, Salik provides toll exemptions for People of Determination, public transport, and school buses, fostering a shared sense of belonging with Dubai’s fast-growing population. Salik focuses on children’s well-being, collaborating with NGOs to support initiatives that impact the future of our communities.

Leading the way to greener solutions

By the nature of its operations, Salik contributes to Dubai’s goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050. Salik’s free-flow gates reduce traffic congestion, fuel consumption, and GHG emissions. Three of Salik’s toll gates are currently solar-powered, with plans underway to expand renewable energy usage. The Company adopted a paperless strategy early on, encompassing 99% of its operations. Salik was the official mobility partner of Future Sustainability Forum 2024 in line with its commitment to advancing sustainable transportation solutions in Dubai.
