The idea is to create an urban community area that is connected to a growing number of retail, dining and entertainment facilities on The Palm. The developer has had to deal with a number of logistical challenges in pedestrianising what are currently busy service roads.&#8221;We had to go into the details of the details,&#8221; said Ali Rashid Lootah, the Nakheel chairman. &#8220;We will be creating a mock up of the pedestrian area, a couple of hundred metres long, so residents can see what the benefits of the plan are likely to be. That will be ready by the end of Q1. &#8220;We want to cause minimal disturbance to people&#8217;s lives but it will involve some construction.&#8221;The pedestrian bridges and conversion of service roads will also take some of the pressure off the main trunk road of the Palm, which is becoming busier as more hotels, shops and restaurants open on the man-made island. &#8220;I think Nakheel have to free some movement on and off the Palm,&#8221; said Matthew Green, the head of research at CBRE. &#8220;The trunk is already a very busy road and that is before the opening of The Pointe next year and Nakheel Mall in 2018. Pedestrian bridges will free the trunk of pedestrian crossings, lights and speed bumps, which will increase the speed of traffic flow.&#8221;ascott@the national.aeFollow The National&#8217;s Business section on Twitter&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : thenational.ae&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenational.ae\/business\/property\/pedestrianisation-of-palm-jumeirah-to-start-next-year\" target=\"_blank\">Pedestrianisation of Palm Jumeirah to start next year<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; The long-awaited pedestrianisation of the trunk of Palm Jumeirah is expected to get underway next&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-38496","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-a0U","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":66084,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/seven-tides-to-launch-palm-jumeirah-residential-development\/","url_meta":{"origin":38496,"position":0},"title":"Seven Tides to launch Palm Jumeirah residential development","date":"September 10, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r SE7EN Residences, located on the western trunk of the Palm, consist of two towers with over 1,000 luxury residential units\r \r Source : arabianbusiness.com\r Read more...Seven Tides to launch Palm Jumeirah residential development","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":29377,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/nakheel-opens-beachfront-restaurant-strip-at-palm-jumeirah\/","url_meta":{"origin":38496,"position":1},"title":"Nakheel opens beachfront restaurant strip at Palm Jumeirah","date":"October 10, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Nakheel has opened a new beachfront strip of restaurants on Palm Jumeirah as part of its Dh20 billion push into retail and hospitality.The Dh120 million Club Vista Mare located at the end of the island's main trunk features seven new restaurants all located directly on the beach.Cuisine on offer\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":49267,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/drake-scull-exits-one-palm-joint-venture\/","url_meta":{"origin":38496,"position":2},"title":"Drake &amp; Scull exits One Palm joint venture","date":"March 23, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r The property, located on the left trunk of Palm Jumeirah, was launched in 2014\r \r Source : arabianbusiness.com\r Read more...Drake & Scull exits One Palm joint venture","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":170824,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/fairmont-the-palm-gm-reassures-guests-after-palm-jumeirah-incident-during-regional-strikes\/","url_meta":{"origin":38496,"position":3},"title":"Fairmont The Palm GM reassures guests after Palm Jumeirah incident during regional strikes","date":"March 5, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Hotel remains fully operational following incident outside Palm Jumeirah property as UAE air defences successfully intercept missiles and drones The post Fairmont The Palm GM reassures guests after Palm Jumeirah incident during regional strikes appeared first on Arabian Business: Latest News on the Middle East, Real Estate, Finance, and\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":33741,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/palm-jumeirah-penthouse-in-dubai-mixes-home-comforts-with-hotel-luxury\/","url_meta":{"origin":38496,"position":4},"title":"Palm Jumeirah penthouse in Dubai mixes home comforts with hotel luxury","date":"November 10, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r This penthouse has only recently been completed on Palm Jumeirah and it joins a stable of Viceroy Residences that sit in some of the most sought-after global destinations such as Snowmass in Aspen Colorado and Bocas del Toro in the Caribbean.
