Drivers in Muharraq can now pay for parking on Shaikh Hamad Avenue using a mobile app, as the Ministry of Works aims to phase out old coin meters and modernize parking practices. This change allows for online payments and remote session extensions, making parking simpler and quicker for motorists. The Ministry of Works, in collaboration with the General Directorate of Traffic, introduced Bahrain’s first e-payment parking meters on Shaikh Hamad Avenue as part of a broader plan to upgrade parking infrastructure across the kingdom.

With fewer people carrying cash and instead using online payment apps, the introduction of e-payment parking meters aligns parking practices with a more modern approach. The ministry is providing users on busy streets with flexible payment options and the ability to pay for specific durations of parking according to official time limits and extensions. This change not only enhances the user experience but also contributes to a more efficient and organized parking system in Bahrain.

The Ministry of Works aims to simplify the parking process for drivers by allowing them to pay fees through online payment apps and extend their parking sessions remotely. This eliminates the need to stand by the meter and provides greater convenience for motorists. While cash payments are still an option, the focus is on providing users with more flexible payment options, particularly on Bahrain’s busier streets. The introduction of e-payment parking meters represents a step towards a more modern and efficient parking system in the kingdom.
