Master developer Dubai South has awarded a contract worth Dh300 million to Tristar Engineering & Construction for infrastructure works at its flagship Residential District.
The completed infrastructure works of Phase 1 and 2 of the Residential District will be completed by the final quarter of 2017.
“This contract further cements our long and continued collaboration of more than 10 years in successfully executing and delivering major earthworks, heavy infrastructure, and roads projects in the Dubai South Development,” said Naji Hasan Al Harthi, chairman, Tristar Engineering & Construction.
Under the contract, Tristar will carry out complete community infrastructure work - including road works, potable water network, sewerage network, storm water drainage network, combined irrigation and firefighting network, district cooling network, electrical works, telecommunication works, road lighting, gas network and spare ducts.
Last month it was announced that Atkins Global, Studio International Architects and RNL Design had won contracts to oversee the master plan for the district, which will comprise about 10,000 middle-income homes by 2020, housing about 35,000 residents.
According to Dubai South, more than 40 property developers are waiting in the wings to start construction work at the Residential District once infrastructure work is complete.
