DIYAR Al Muharraq, one of Bahrain’s biggest mixed-use residential urban developments, has appointed Aecom as its master-planner. This move is in line with the project’s second stage of development, which is to be carried out off the northeastern coast of Muharraq.
Aecom is a global provider of professional, technical and management support services, specifically in the areas of masterplanning transportation, facilities, environment and energy.
It is also one of the world’s largest engineering and architectural design firms with a presence in more than 100 countries. Aaref Hejres, CEO, Diyar Al Muharraq, said: “Aecom is a Fortune 500 company that has always stayed at the top of all its business segments such as professional technical services and management support services.”
“Last year, the Engineering News-Record magazine rated Aecom as the number one design firm in the world in its International Design Firms Sourcebook.
“This proves beyond any doubt Aecom’s merit for being associated with Diyar Al Muharraq as the masterplanner for the second stage development,” he said.
