DUBAI 2040 URBAN MASTER PLAN: A KEY TO TURN IDEAS INTO REALITY

From skyscrapers to green corridors, here is how Dubai is always ahead of the rest. Under the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, green and recreational spaces and areas dedicated to public parks will double in size to serve the growing number of number of residents and visitors. The road map for Dubai was set in the sixties when Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum envisioned the emirate’s evolution into a city that promotes the greatest human values and possibilities and an environment where people can thrive. Following his vision, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, launched the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan that maps out a comprehensive future map for sustainable urban development in the city. The plan focuses on strengthening Dubai’s competitiveness as a global destination by providing diverse lifestyle and an array of investment opportunity for citizens, residents and visitors over the next 20 years.
