As part of its third stage of resumption of activities, Abu Dhabi’s Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) has reopened more public parks and beaches today.
The update was shared through DMT’s official media platforms, including its social media channels.
Through its first-of-its-kind campaign – The Hygienic City – with the slogan #itstartswithyou, DMT has urged residents to continue social distancing and wear masks in all public places. The campaign reminds every resident they have a vital role to play in preventing the virus from spreading and that wearing a face mask in any public place is paramount.
At entrances of each reopened public beach and park, thermal cameras will check people’s temperatures. Rules will also be in place for groups, couples and individuals, including a maximum of five people allowed per group.
