Dragon Mart extension contracts

Dubai’s Nakheel has awarded contracts worth Dh50 million for work at Dragon Mart Phase 2 and the neighbouring International City master community.

The master developer has awarded a contract for Dh36.5 million to ADC Energy Systems for the design and construction of the cooling plant at its Dragon Mart extension project.

The 7,500 tonne capacity cooling plant will serve the new mall, hotel and car park that make up the 177,000 square metre Dragon Mart Phase 2 project. Mobilisation is expected within a month, the developer said.

In International City, Nakheel has signed Ascon Road Construction for infrastructure and road works at a new 140,000-square metre warehousing district, to be constructed next to the existing Textile City area. The five-month contract is worth Dh12.6 million.

On Monday, Nakheel floated a tender for ground improvement works at The Pointe, its 136,000 square metre retail and entertainment complex on Palm Jumeirah.

The Pointe at Palm Jumeirah will be located at the tip of The Palm, opposite Atlantis.

The project will contain a diverse range of shopping, dining and entertainment facilities, including a spectacular fountain display.

The scope of works for ground improvement includes vibro-compaction, topographic survey and factual site investigation work, to be carried out in preparation for construction to begin.
