Dubai Municipality said the site will be divided into multiple sections, and each segment will be
sequentially patterned to ensure uninterrupted docking traffic. The second phase will cover a
2.3km length on the Bur Dubai side.

The project’s 14-month timeline includes the restoration of the 2.1km Deira pier, which involves

replacement and the rehabilitation of damaged sections of the concrete wall, reaching a depth of
eight meters and increasing its height to three meters. These improvements aim to ensure the
safe docking of ships in the area.

By initiating this project, the Municipality aims to enhance services and facilities for safe docking

and navigation, which will be ensured through the provision of 200 anchors across the dock. The
entire work will be completed within a 14-month period.

Dubai Municipality Director-General, Dawoud Al Hajri, commented: “The project highlights Dubai

Municipality’s commitment to transforming the emirate into a more attractive and innovative city
by enhancing various elements and services it offers through the strategic and sustainable
development of all coastal facilities and infrastructure.
