Nakheel, a member of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has awarded a major infrastructure contract worth AED 169 million to Al Nasr Contracting Company LLC. The contract will support the development of Bay Villas, a new residential community located within the Dubai Islands.
Scope Includes Roads and Utilities for 636 Homes
The awarded contract includes the construction of internal access roads and the installation of vital utility services for the 636-unit Bay Villas project. These infrastructure works will provide seamless connectivity between homes, public spaces, and the wider island systems.
Nakheel emphasized that this contract aligns with its strategic approach to sequencing preparatory work alongside infrastructure development, ensuring efficient progress and consistent delivery standards across the community.
Khalid Al Malik, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Holding Real Estate, highlighted the importance of this phase in the project’s lifecycle: “Awarding this infrastructure contract to Al Nasr represents a critical foundation phase for Bay Villas, ensuring our 636-unit waterfront community is built on robust infrastructure from day one. Al Nasr’s proven expertise in complex civil works and strong safety record align with our commitment to delivering exceptional residential communities. This infrastructure investment directly supports Dubai Islands’ development as a premier waterfront destination, creating the essential connectivity that will enhance residents’ daily lives and long-term property values.”
Jean Nicolas El Helou, Chief Executive Officer of Al Nasr Contracting Company LLC, expressed his team’s readiness to deliver: “We are pleased to partner with Nakheel, an established leader in Dubai’s real estate landscape, on essential infrastructure works for Bay Villas at Dubai Islands. Our team will work closely with all stakeholders to ensure this new villa community meets the highest of standards set by Nakheel to support Bay Villas’ development as one of the newest and exciting communities for people looking to live and invest in Dubai.”
This contract adds Al Nasr to the list of key partners supporting the delivery of the Bay Villas project. Earlier this year, Fibrex Contracting L.L.C. was awarded a AED 2.6 billion contract for the main construction of the Dubai Islands development.
Bay Villas will feature a mix of townhouses, semi-detached villas, garden villas, and premium waterfront and beachfront villas in a resort-style, connected community. The project contributes to the larger vision for Dubai Islands and supports the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, focusing on sustainable, well-planned communities with public amenities and open spaces.
