Dubai is about to embark on a project to develop a highly comprehensive storm drainage network. This groundbreaking project was announced by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. This ambitious Dh30 billion project, called 'Tasreef', aims to significantly improve the emirate's infrastructure and prepare it for future climate challenges.


Revolution in Stormwater Management

The 'Tasreef' project will increase the capacity of Dubai's stormwater drainage system by an incredible 700%. This upgrade will cover all regions of the emirate, enabling comprehensive management of rainwater and reducing flood risks. The project will be the largest rainwater harvesting network in the region, absorbing more than 20 million cubic meters of water per day.


Advanced Technology and Sustainable Solutions

To achieve this remarkable feat, the project will use the latest Tunnel Boring Machines (TBM) known for their efficiency, speed and precision. These state-of-the-art machines are the largest in the Middle East and are capable of managing a variety of topographic conditions. This technological advancement underscores Dubai's commitment to sustainable and strategic development.


Long-Term Vision for a Resilient Future

The 'Tasreef' project, which is planned to be completed by 2033, is designed to serve Dubai for the next hundred years. This project builds on previous drainage initiatives launched in 2019 and covering key areas such as Expo Dubai, Al Maktoum International Airport City and Jabal Ali. This long-term vision ensures that Dubai is well prepared to cope with increased rainfall and other climate change impacts.


Strategic Impact and Social Benefits

The announcement of the 'Tasreef' project comes just two months after floods hit parts of the UAE. Dubai is taking proactive steps to protect its residents and infrastructure from future climate events by increasing stormwater drainage capacity. This project not only addresses pressing concerns but also positions Dubai as a leader in sustainable urban development.
