Dredging – Dubai 2040
Yesterday, Palm Jebel Ali, one of Nakheel’s most significant master developments, realised a milestone in its next phase of development, with an AED 810 million contract for the marine works on Palm Jebel Ali being awarded to Jan De Nul Dredging.
This follows the award of two major infrastructure contracts, with works already commencing on the construction of a new public access road, which will provide access from Sheikh Zayed Road, in addition to roadway and lighting enhancements from the mainland to Palm Jebel Ali.
In line with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, Palm Jebel Ali will support the emirate’s vision to deliver the highest standards of urban infrastructure and facilities, as well as marking the beginning of a new growth corridor in the Jebel Ali area, underlining the expansion of the emirate. More than 700 units of Palm Jebel Ali’s Phase 1 frond villas will be delivered by late 2026.
Nakheel, a member of Dubai Holding Real Estate, held a groundbreaking ceremony with senior leadership members from both organisations, as well as a signing ceremony to mark this significant milestone.
