Features

The ADGM South Plaza and LRT Park project scope includes 2 Packages. Package 1 is for the redevelopment of the
ADGM South Plaza to cater for public events and Package 2 is for the implementation of temporary public realm
improvements associated with the Highline (LRT Line) between the Park & South-Central Plaza in Al Maryah Island.
The projects are both high visibility public realm/landscaping projects and are located on the podium deck at level
14.5m. The two projects ADGM South Plaza and LRT Park are described in the following Sections.

Package 1: ADGM South Plaza
The first stages of the construction are to demolish select elements of the existing plaza which needs to be handled with care as the surround paving will remain and shouldn’t be damaged. Careful consideration must be taken in the construction phasing of the works to maintain pedestrian and vehicular building access at all times. Given the importance of the plaza and surrounding buildings visual screening of construction works must be maintained through out the entire construction program. The key elements in the new ADGM South Plaza design are:
• Sculptural pre-cast seating elements - movable
• Sculptural pre-cast planters - movable
• Recessed flagpole locations
• Smartpole lights
• In-ground power points for events at the Plaza level
• Power distribution from the South Car Park P1 level (+3.00 LVL) to the Plaza level (+14.5 LVL)
• Replacing 3 no. fire hydrants with recessed fire hydrants.
• Smoking Zone
• Planting
• Irrigation

Package 2: LRT Park
The LRT Park is a temporary public realm space that utilizes the as-built LRT structural tray owned by DMT-DOT. Mubadala have an MOU with DMT-DOT to use the assets until such time that the LRT is implemented. As the MOU agreement includes the requirement to return the asset in the same condition as it was received the design strategy incorporates the use modular elements that can be easily placed and removed while not impacting the LRT structural tray. The LRT Park design is made up of a series of modular planters and seating elements which includes the following key items:
• Pre-cast Seating
• Pre-cast Planter
• Lighting
• Signage
• Hoarding
• Planting
• Irrigation
• Hardscape
