The Roads and Transport Authority has endorsed the contribution of Dh100 million to the Jumeirah Corniche development contract.
The project spans the beachside of six residential communities, starting from a location behind the Dubai Marine Beach Resort and Spa up to Burj Al Arab Hotel along a 14km stretch, rendering it the longest corniche in the emirate.
The project, which is expected to open in November, includes a pedestrian walk that is five metres wide, a 4m-wide jogging track, and retail kiosks and shaded benches overlooking the beach.
