Al Marwan’s Heavy Equipment Fleet Powers the Masaar Infrastructure Project

Masaar—the Arabic word for "path"—is more than just a housing development; it is an AED 8 billion master-planned community by Arada Developments designed to harmonize urban luxury with the serenity of nature. Located in Al Tay, Sharjah, this massive project spans several residential phases, including Sarai, Azalea, Robinia, Kaya, and Sendian.

A project of this magnitude requires a robust backbone. Al Marwan has been instrumental in laying that foundation, deploying its award-winning rental fleet to execute critical infrastructure works that bring this 50,000-tree "green spine" vision to life.

Project Overview

The Masaar project, situated in Al Tay, south of Sharjah, UAE, is a part of Arada Developments' mission to revitalize the UAE's cityscape with sustainable and nature-oriented residential and commercial communities. With a budget of AED 8 billion, the Masaar megaproject aims to create an exceptional living environment with 4,000 villas and townhouses, incorporating a remarkable "green spine" adorned with 50,000 trees.

Scope of Al Marwan's Involvement

Al Marwan was entrusted with the critical task of executing the infrastructure works required for the Masaar project. The company successfully completed the construction of sales precinct access roads and buffer zones, a 6 km cycling track, and three underpasses. Moreover, Al Marwan took charge of various infrastructure services, including the establishment of a telecom network comprising MeetMe rooms, surface water drainage networks, sewerage networks featuring sewerage pumping stations, potable water networks, electrical networks, street lighting networks, CCTV systems, and gas networks.

Key Amenities and Facilities

Thanks to the great scale of infrastructure works, Masaar now boasts an array of outstanding amenities. These include a children's adventure playground, a skate park, an outdoor amphitheater, and Zad, a popular food district already present in Arada's sister community, Aljada. Additionally, professional sports facilities set in a serene woodland area further enhance the overall appeal of Masaar.

Equipment Utilized
