Nakheel awards three contracts

Nakheel has awarded three new contracts together worth more than Dh41 million for its Al Furjan and Warsan Village master communities.

Two of the newly-awarded contracts cover infrastructure design and supervision for hundreds of third-party villa and mixed-use plots at a new phase of Al Furjan, with consultants Arif & Bintoak and Dar Al Handasah handed contracts worth Dh13.6 million and Dh2.9 million, respectively.

Al Furjan’s new phase more than 1.2 million square metres, and includes over 500 third-party villa plots and more than 30 mixed-use plots already sold by Nakheel.

The first phase of the project, containing 800 homes, is already complete.

Nakheel has also awarded a contract for Dh24.6 million to Dubai-based international architects Dh7 for design and supervision work at Warsan Village.

Warsan Village, launched in September last year, is a gated community spanning 47.5 hectares, with 942 townhomes, 250 apartments, a retail plaza, mosque and recreation centre.

Construction of the project is currently out to tender, with proposals due this month.
