Nakheel’s 11km Boardwalk at Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah – a new waterfront attraction with a project value of AED150mn ($40.8mn) – has moved a step closer with the award of a contract to Overseas AST Company LLC.
The Boardwalk will transform Palm Jumeirah’s 11km protective crescent into a vibrant destination for walking, shopping and dining, includes an East and West Pier – each stretching 100 metres out to sea – featuring glass-encased cafes and restaurants with extensive views of the Arabian Gulf, Palm Jumeirah and the Dubai skyline.
The piers, to be constructed at either end of the crescent, will each contain 1,000m2 of decking.
Accessible from 14 points along the existing sidewalk and on the doorstep of an array of world-famous resorts on Palm Jumeirah’s crescent, The Boardwalk will be created by building over the rocks of the Palm’s breakwater.
It will be six metres wide – more than double the width of the existing crescent path – with 30 kiosks, offering refreshments and souvenirs, throughout its 11km length.
Construction is due to start before the end of 2014, with anticipated completion in mid-2016.
A Nakheel spokesman said: “The Boardwalk at Palm Jumeirah, one of several new projects underway on the island, will be a big draw for Palm residents, the wider community of Dubai and the millions of tourists who visit Dubai each year.”
Other projects underway by Nakheel on Palm Jumeirah include Nakheel Mall, The Pointe and Palm West Beach.
