Worshippers will still be able to use one free hour of parking during prayer times, ensuring easier access for those attending prayers.
The new M (standard) and MP (premium) signs aim to stop long-term misuse of mosque parking, which was often used by non-worshippers for shopping or office visits.
Residents say the system will bring more order, reduce double parking, and prioritise worshippers’ access.
