Aldar Properties announced that its flagship Central Market project is ahead of schedule in readiness to achieve its phased completion dates.
The first phase of the project will be complete by mid-2008. The project is on target with infrastructure and enabling works already in place. The development’s massive excavation is now complete along with the majority of its substantial permanent pile foundations. The suq’s foundations are complete, with the new construction works progressing upwards to the ground surface.
Aldar’s strategy to secure early phase completion dates, using an integrated fast-track construction approach to this highly complex mixed-use development has seen the first major contract award for Phase 1 of the underground structure going to Mushrif, the multi-disciplined, civil and heavy engineering Kuwaiti contractor, now based and expanding in the UAE.
