Jumeirah Corniche ... offering diverse facilities for residents and tourists.

Dubai to open 14-km Jumeirah Corniche

DUBAI, October 25, 2014

Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is set to fully open the Jumeirah Corniche stretching 14 km at the beach overlooking six residential communities starting from the backyard of the Dubai Marine Beach Resort up to Burj Al Arab Hotel, on Sunday (October 26).

The corniche consists of a five-m-wide walk, a four meter-wide jogging track, and relaxation areas comprising retail kiosks, shaded benches overlooking the sea, and public hygiene, said a statement from RTA.

The project boasts a fascinating scenic view through well looked-after landscaped areas developed and spread in an elegant way together with stylish decorative lighting, it stated.

Mattar Al Tayer, the chairman of the board and executive director of the RTA, said: "The Jumeirah Corniche is considered a gorgeous addition to the area offering relaxation and relief and greater opportunity for the public to enjoy and practice several activities in addition to high-class service facilities for citizens, residents and tourists to enjoy a time out, swim or practice sport."

"Besides its practical value, the venue is a dazzling recreational facility with a specific importance as it contributes to upgrading the social infrastructure of the emirate in terms of quality public health of the community, offering ample opportunities for the residents to practice jogging, walking and aquatic sports such as swimming, rowing, and other activities," remarked Al Tayer.

The Jumeirah Corniche will be linked at a later stage with the Walk and the jogging/walking tracks of the Dubai Water Canal; a new urban destination in the making for the regional and international tourist movement as well as for the populace of the emirate," said the RTA chief.

The Canal, which links the Business Bay with the Arabian Gulf, will add 6 km to the Dubai Waterfront, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
