312 = unique zone number (each zone is a discrete geographic micro-area, more granular than "neighbourhood")
A = commercial roadside parking, Category 1, max 4 hours per ticket
P = Premium zone (new since April 2025) — automatically applies within 500m of any Metro station, peak-hour pricing AED 6/hr (8-10 AM, 4-8 PM)

Operator is Parkin Company PJSC (formerly RTA Parking, IPO'd in 2024)
