Atkins is the lead designer on the Dubai Metro Red and Green Lines, currently regarded as the world’s largest transport infrastructure project under design and construction.
With a project value of US$3.7 billion, these first two lines of the Dubai Metro comprise 74.5 km of track, 10 underground and 34 above ground stations, and 3 maintenance depots. The Red Line is scheduled for completion in 2009 and will extend from Jebel Ali, through to Bur Juman in Bur Dubai, under Dubai Creek to Deira and onto Dubai International Airport and beyond. The Green Line, to be completed in 2010, ultimately will link Healthcare City with the Airport Free Zone. Atkins’ role to date has been the design management and co-ordination of all civil works such as the tunnels, viaducts and bridges, stations, depots, track alignment, highways and utilities diversions, and co-ordination of other associated works such as landscape, fire and ventilation, signalling, rolling stock and power.
