Nakheel issues $204m infrastructure contracts for Palm Jebel Ali, Dubai
Nakheel, part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has issued three major contracts for infrastructure works on Palm Jebel Ali in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Totalling more than Dh750m ($204.1m), these contracts are said to be a 'significant milestone' in the ongoing development of the waterfront destination, with completion expected in the fourth quarter of 2026. DBB Contracting, a construction company within the Dutco group, has been selected for these projects. The company has a history of working on the island, including previous infrastructure projects such as public access and road construction. UAE Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum initiated the Palm Jebel Ali development, which supports the Dubai Economic Agenda D33. The infrastructure scope includes utility connections, ground works, road and pavement construction for Fronds A to G, and related utility works for 11kV power distribution and telecoms. The Spine District's infrastructure works will comprise utility mains, connections to utility links on the fronds, and major and secondary road construction. It also involves rough grading for the DEWA power transmission line serving the area, including associated works. Palm Jebel Ali spans 13.4km and features seven islands with 16 fronds and more than 90km of beachfront. It aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan's commitment to expanding public beach access and is poised to support waterfront living with mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly neighbourhoods offering Arabian Gulf views. The development will provide residents and visitors with diverse recreational spaces, smart city technologies, sustainable practices, and mobility solutions to enhance connectivity. Dubai Holding Real Estate CEO Khalid Al Malik said: 'Palm Jebel Ali exemplifies Dubai's ambition to redefine global waterfront living through an innovative luxury lifestyle mega project. "The iconic development is set to transform the city's urban landscape in alignment with the leadership's vision to create a world-class destination that will attract residents, tourists and investors. We are pleased to extend our association with DBB Contracting LLC, a partner whose proven expertise and unwavering dedication to quality will help ensure the successful delivery of this important project." In October 2024, Nakheel awarded contracts worth more than Dh5bn for a luxury villa development on the island. Earlier this year, Nakheel entered a partnership with six architecture companies to design ten unique styles for The Beach Collection villas at Palm Jebel Ali.
