It is reported that Nurol Construction & Trading Company has won a USD 60.7 million bridge construction package for Sorouh Real Estate's Shams Abu Dhabi project on Reem Island.

The contractor has 640 days to complete the construction of 13 bridges at the USD 6.8 billion development. The company fended off competition from 12 other contractors for the package.

The bridges will form part of the loop road bridging 4 kilometers of artificial canals and will transport all utility duct banks including gas, power and district cooling.

Mr Mounir Haidar CEO of Sorouh Real Estate said that "The concepts for the structures have been developed taking into account the visual impact of the structures. The objective is to create a sense of identity for each district by creating a distinctive visual appearance."

The project is divided into 5 neighborhoods, each with a distinct style and bridges will be designed to complement the overall aesthetic of each district.
