The Works Minister stated that the Ma’ameer Waterfront Development Project is part of the Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning’s determination to create waterfront and greenery projects for the public.

Mr Khalaf said that the waterfront will be linked with the surrounding roads network to facilitate arrival for visitors. “Approvals for constructing the road have been accepted and work is in progress.” The minister explained that the lightning used in the walkway will be powered by solar energy, as part of the ministry’s approach to renewable energy in its current and future projects.
He also explained that the Ma’ameer Waterfront Development Project is considered an effort to achieve sustainable urban development by providing municipal projects that contribute to improving the urban environment for the area.
