The Dubai Police have provided special parking locations for women drivers at many police stations.
Brigadier Ali Ghanem, chairman of the Police Stations Council, said that the new provision was made following the orders of the Dubai Police Commander-in-Chief, Major General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri. The move is aimed to bring happiness to and ensure the privacy of women, relieving them from the trouble of having to hunt for parking spots, especially at police stations where congestion is common.
The lines and numbers of the parking spots are painted in pink, and can also be identified with guiding boards.
Brigadier Ghanem said the Dubai Police is keen to pursue the best plans and initiatives to provide the highest quality of service to customers, in line with the vision of the Government of Dubai and within the framework of the highest international standards.
Other initiatives by the Dubai Police include the launch of the mobile police station, to provide police services in tourist, densely populated and workers' areas; the 'your security at the touch of a button' initiative, and the Laboratory of Mobile Creativity, in which the Dubai Police received many suggestions from the public.
