Preparations in Full Swing by Dubai Municipality for a Secure and Celebratory Eid Al Fitr
Dubai Municipality Ensures a Safe and Enjoyable Eid Al Fitr for Residents and Tourists
Dubai Municipality has announced a comprehensive operational plan for Eid Al Fitr, aiming to provide a safe, clean, and enjoyable holiday experience across vital tourist areas and public facilities.
Food Safety and Public Health
To maintain the highest standards of food safety and public health, Dubai Municipality is conducting rigorous inspections of food outlets and markets, particularly during the Ramadan and Eid periods. Special Ramadan souqs and iftar/suhoor tents are organised with a focus on safe food handling and quality control to prevent foodborne illnesses.
Environmental Protection and Waste Management
The Municipality is taking proactive measures to protect the environment and manage waste effectively during Eid celebrations. They enforce waste disposal regulations and encourage environmentally friendly practices to keep public areas clean. Regular cleanliness drives and proper management of waste generated by festivities, markets, and public gatherings are part of their strategy. Specific initiatives for animal safety, such as designated feeding areas for stray dogs, also contribute to public health and environmental wellbeing.
Security Measures
For the safety and security of residents and tourists, Dubai Municipality is working closely with security forces. They monitor commercial activities to prevent hazardous obstructions and enhance pedestrian safety during crowded festival days. Additionally, municipal celebrations for Eid include organized events at official headquarters to promote community cohesion and safe enjoyment.
Additional Measures
To ensure a smooth and clean Eid celebration, Dubai Municipality has taken additional steps. Additional waste containers have been placed strategically for easy disposal of waste. They are also conducting targeted inspections in malls, salons, beauty centres, cafes with smoking areas, worker accommodations, and community markets.
Residents and visitors can report any food safety or public health concerns via Dubai Municipality's 24-hour call centre at 800900.
In collaboration with the Permanent Committee for Labour Affairs, special Eid events and activities will be organized in Al Quoz Industrial Areas 3 and 4, and Muhaisnah 2. Major attractions like Dubai Frame and Children's City are hosting a variety of entertainment activities.
Extensive sanitation efforts have been completed across Eid prayer areas, roads, beaches, and high-traffic zones. Public beaches are now more accessible for people of determination and the elderly, with security personnel, crowd control teams, and enhanced accessibility features in place.
Together, these efforts by Dubai Municipality create an integrated approach, combining regulatory inspections, environmental cleanliness, community engagement, and security oversight to ensure a safe, healthy, and enjoyable Eid Al Fitr experience for both residents and tourists in Dubai.
