Additionally, innovative wind-resistant spraying techniques have been integrated,
resulting in a water-saving of around 30 per cent.

The implementation of sustainable groundwater and rainwater drainage systems by

the Municipality has proven effective, particularly during the recent rainfall.
Furthermore, a pumping station with a capacity exceeding 280 cubic meters per hour

has also been established, along with a tank with a capacity of 1,000 cubic meters. As

part of beautification efforts at the intersection, the Municipality has also installed

multi-color linear lighting systems.

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

significance of agricultural beautification initiatives and highlighted the efforts to

expand green spaces across Dubai. These efforts reflect the vision of His Highness

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the

UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to position Dubai as the best city to live in the world.

Al Hajri stated that increasing green spaces in Dubai is integral to the Municipality’s

strategies aimed at promoting environmental sustainability in the emirate. The goal is

to establish a comprehensive environmental impact that preserves natural elements

and resources while improving their overall quality. These efforts are expected to

enhance Dubai’s attractiveness and aesthetic appeal while ensuring the highest

standards of living and luxury for its residents.

beautification projects with a primary goal of enhancing the ever-renewing vitality of

Dubai according to integrated world-class standards, in addition to fostering

sustainability in Dubai by actively implementing innovative irrigation technologies that

rely on fully recycled water.”
