Introduction
Dubai Holding Real Estate (DHRE) has announced the awarding of a road and infrastructure development contract to Wade Adams for Phase One of the Plantation project. The Dubai infrastructure and road project spans 185 hectares in Dubai and is strategically located between Hamdan Road (D54), Latifah Street (D67), and Emirates Road (E611). Its proximity to low-density residential communities makes it a significant addition to the city’s urban development landscape.
Project Details
Location and Design
The Plantation project is set in an expansive desert landscape, presenting unique design challenges that require a harmonious balance between buildings and natural surroundings. The development aims to establish a fully integrated community where infrastructure, residential areas, and green spaces coexist seamlessly rather than being in contrast with each other. This Dubai infrastructure and road project is key to achieving that balance.
Scope of Work
Wade Adams has been assigned to execute the core infrastructure works, which include:
- Developing the road network and connecting it to the surrounding infrastructure.
- Constructing stormwater drainage systems to prevent flooding and water accumulation.
- Installing street lighting in accordance with energy efficiency standards.
- Implementing traffic control systems for smooth and safe traffic flow.
- Developing a potable water network and integrating it with nearby facilities.
- Establishing sewage collection systems that comply with environmental and health regulations.
- Creating a main irrigation system to support landscaped areas.
- Installing firefighting systems, including water reservoirs and pump stations.
- Constructing electrical power networks with both high-voltage (HV) and low-voltage (LV) systems.
- Providing telecommunication and security ducting, including gas and spare ducts. All of these components are crucial for the success of the Dubai infrastructure and road project.
In a statement, Dubai Holding Real Estate said:
“The Plantation project challenges conventional arrangements of plotted communities by creating an environment where buildings and landscapes coexist in harmony rather than in contrast.”
Project Significance and Impact
The Plantation project is a key addition to Dubai’s urban development, contributing to the creation of a fully integrated, sustainable community with state-of-the-art infrastructure. Its design aligns with modern urban planning principles, ensuring a high quality of life for residents while optimizing the use of natural resources. The success of this Dubai infrastructure and road project will set a new benchmark for future developments.
With this development, the project is expected to attract residents and investors looking for a balanced living environment that blends advanced infrastructure with open natural spaces, setting a new benchmark for residential communities in Dubai.
