Dubai World Trade Centre work delayed

Construction work on the first phase of the Dubai World Trade Centre District project has been slowed as the developer focuses on expanding exhibition space at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The delay means the delivery of the first office buildings at the business hub, which will include seven office buildings, two hotels and retail outlets, will be about nine months late.

“As our immediate focus is on the construction of our new exhibition halls in order to meet regional MICE industry demands, we have pushed back our build programme for our Dubai Trade Centre District project, and completion of the first office buildings in phase one of the district is expected by the end of quarter three in 2011,” a spokesman for Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) said in a statement.
