            “Over 13,000 ships cross Dubai Creek annually”




        Dubai, UAE: Dubai Municipality has implemented a project to

        rebuild and rehabilitate the supporting walls along the Deira side of

        Dubai Creek, with a total expense of AED 112 million. The project


        aims to enhance the effectiveness of the creek’s retaining walls by

        upgrading the dock, reconstructing sections that have been damaged

        and dilapidated over the past 50 years, and preventing potential

        flooding during harsh weather conditions. This effort aims to

        minimize disruptions to commercial traffic caused by flooding or bad


        weather.




        The project is set to be implemented in two phases, with the initial

        phase involving the restoration of a 2.1 km stretch along the Deira

        side of Dubai Creek. 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 2.3 km

        length on the Bur Dubai side.




        Global Reputation




        H.E. Dawoud Al Hajri, Director General of Dubai Municipality, stated

        that the project highlights Dubai Municipality’s commitment to

        transforming Dubai 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 in the Emirate. The goal is to solidify Dubai’s position

        as a global tourism hub and augment its economic and commercial

        prosperity.
