Damac Properties has awarded multiple contracts for consultancy services for its Damac Lagoons master development in Dubailand.

Energoprojekt Entel Co. Ltd bagged the contract for consultancy services for a 132/11kV sub-station.

Global infrastructure consultancy Aecom was awarded a contract for the Venice cluster and the central hub of the master development. 

A contract for consultancy services for three of the community’s clusters, including Malta, Nice 1 and 2, was awarded to BHNS Engineering Consultants. 

A similar contract has been awarded to Khatib & Alami for the Nice 3, Costa Brava villa package and Portofino clusters.

“Work is progressing well across all clusters as part of phase 1 of the Damac Lagoons development,” said Mohammed Tahaineh, general manager of Damac.

Damac Lagoons is the developer’s third master community development in the emirate.
