Infra milestone hit at Downtown Jebel Ali project in Dubai
Deep utilities work completed at half of the 200-hectare mixed-use project, says master developer Limitless
Infrastructure work at Downtown Jebel Ali (DJA) in Dubai has reached a major milestone, with deep utilities work complete at half of the 200 hectare mixed-use project, master developer Limitless said today.
Sewerage, storm water and water works have been completed at 50% of the project, with roads now underway. Deep utilities work is ongoing at the rest of the development, with anticipated completion this summer.
Under a AED285 million contract, all infrastructure will be finished in 2018, Limitless said in a statement.
Limitless Chairman Ali Rashid Lootah said: “Downtown Jebel Ali is taking shape, with infrastructure work progressing well. We are well on our way to connecting service to all third-party plots.
“DJA’s strategic location, close to the Jebel Ali Free Zone and within easy reach of Abu Dhabi, Dubai World Central Airport, the Expo 2020 site and new attractions and theme parks, makes it a key area for growth and development. We look forward to working with the investors who share our vision for this unique master community.”
DJA stretches 11km along Dubai’s Sheikh Zayed Road. The project has more than 300 third party plots, on which investors are building a mixture of apartments, hotels, offices and retail developments.
