2/26/24, 11:03 AM Dubai Municipality initiates project to develop Dubai Creek pier and upgrade support walls
“Our goal is to improve the security and safety measures for maritime traffic and
commercial activities within the Dubai Creek.”

“The project aligns with the vision to strengthen Dubai’s position as a global tourism

hub and boost its economic and commercial prosperity.”
“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.
