              efficiency of the marine docks on both banks.






              These designs adhere to the highest global


              standards, ensuring the preservation of the


              supporting walls’ stability and safeguarding


              against increased flooding during seasonal

              weather conditions.”










        Al Hajri added.





        Comprehensive work



        The project's 14-month timeline includes the restoration of the 2.1 km Deira


        pier, which involves replacement and the rehabilitation of damaged sections of

        the concrete wall, reaching a depth of 8 meters and increasing its height to 3

        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.





        Dubai Creek is one of the most vital historic maritime channels in the Emirate,

        marking the initiation of Dubai’s trade interactions with the world over a


        century ago.
