CGGC’s scope covers completion of infrastructure for a 30 sq km area.

China Gezhouba Group Corporation (CGGC) said it has completed the main infrastructure work for the Al Mutlaa Residential City Project and handed it over to the Kuwaiti authorities.

CGGC is a subsidiary of China Energy Engineering Group Company, a state-owned energy conglomerate with its headquarters in Beijing.

Once completed, the Al Mutlaa Residential City, a vital project under the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative, will accommodate 400,000 people.

CGGC’s scope of work includes completion of infrastructure network for a 30 sq km area out of the 120-sq-km residential city development. The Chinese group had started the construction work in April 2017.

CGGC had handed over the first batch of its housing infrastructure project to the authorities last October.
