Nakheel, part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has awarded three contracts worth over AED 750 million for major infrastructure works on Palm Jebel Ali.
The deals, granted to DBB Contracting LLC, mark a key step forward in developing what’s being billed as one of Dubai’s most ambitious waterfront destinations.
The works are set to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2026 and cover a wide range of infrastructure across the island’s fronds and main spine district — including roads, utilities and support for future residential and commercial development.
Palm Jebel Ali is a flagship project aligned with the Dubai Economic Agenda D33.
Once complete, its seven islands spanning 13.4 km, will feature 16 fronds and over 90 km of beachfront, and several smart, sustainable neighbourhoods — all part of Dubai’s 2040 Urban Master Plan.
