The projects include renovating parks and maintaining landscaped areas in Abu Dhabi Mainland, besides constructing water reservoirs, irrigation systems and modern pumping stations.
The projects will provide recreational facilities and parks in order to meet people's aspirations and requirements under the development plan 2030 for Abu Dhabi and suburbs.
ADM is currently undertaking infrastructure projects in the Mainland, costing Dh 127,870,000 million. These projects include constructing and restoring parks and playgrounds beyond Abu Dhabi Island besides improving irrigation network, reservoirs and pumping stations.
The projects also include restoring four parks at Al Shamkha, building a new one at Al Adlah, besides rehabilitating parks and carrying out landscaping works in the Mainland of Abu Dhabi city.
The projects also comprise building multi-purpose sports courts for all age brackets, children's playgrounds, barbeque areas and sitting areas surrounded by eye-catching aquatic sceneries and decorative lighting, in addition to the harmonious views of landscaped areas in a way consistent with the sustainability standards.
