Home UAE Dubai Infrastructure upgrades in Dubai’s JLT to include new road network The master developer of the community, DMCC, is also working on renovating the various lakes across the area by Gulf Business January 14, 2022 A number of projects to upgrade the infrastructure at Dubai’s Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT) community are slated for completion this year. These projects include the construction of a new road network and landscaping works which will facilitate travel between JLT and the Jumeirah island area, and also result in additional parking spaces for visitors to the community. The master developer of the community, DMCC, is also working on renovating the various lakes across JLT, including enhancing the lake’s walls and improving the quality of the water. In addition to façade renovation works at the Jewellery and Gemplex building, DMCC has reportedly made significant progress in the palm replacement project, where it completed the removal and re-planting of 60 new palm trees during the first phase of the project. The palm replacement work will continue throughout the coming year. DMCC has announced completion of a range of enhancements in the #JLTCommunity, with plans to further upgrade the infrastructure and road network in 2022.

These include landscaping and hardscaping improvements at both the DMCC and the Sobha Realty metro stations, and the installation of nearly 2,000 low energy LED lights throughout JLT. Other projects include the upgrade of four playgrounds with new equipment and shading, the deployment of RTA electric scooter stations throughout the district, and the three-level community retail and F&B space brought to JLT in collaboration with Bull&Roo.
