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.
