Nakheel has awarded three new contracts - together worth more than Dhs41 million - for its Al Furjan and Warsan Village communities.
Two of the contracts cover infrastructure design and supervision for hundreds of third-party villa and mixed-use plots at a new phase of Al Furjan, with consultants Arif & Bintoak and Dar Al Handasah handed contracts worth Dhs13.6 million and Dhs 2.9 million respectively.
The new phase of more than 1.2 million square metres includes more than 500 third-party villa plots and more than 30 mixed-use plots already sold by Nakheel. The first phase of the project, containing 800 homes, is already complete.
Nakheel has also awarded a contract for Dhs24.6 million to Dubai-based international architects AE7 for design and supervision work at Warsan Village.
Warsan Village, launched in September last year, is a gated community spanning 47.5 hectares, with 942 townhouses, 250 apartments, a retail plaza, mosque and recreation centre.
Construction of the project (pictured) is currently out to tender, with proposals due this month.
