Abu Dhabi has unveiled a masterplan for the development of Hudayriyat Island, a huge project spread over more than 51 million square meters, representing 53.8 per cent of the main island's area.
The plan will introduce upscale residential neighbourhoods that offer full-circle, panoramic views of Abu Dhabi city and the waterfront, thanks to their elevated locations on two hills, each 45 and 50 meters high, respectively.
The development will also increase the city's coastline by 53.5 km, including 16 km of beaches, adding to Abu Dhabi's status as a premier lifestyle destination.
Existing attractions at Al Hudayriyat include the Velodrome, Surf Abu Dhabi, the Emirate's largest urban park and a 220-km network of cycling paths.
The first phase of development is expected to start within the next 18 months.
