First Access Road to Saadiyat Island Complete
The first construction site access road to Saadiyat Island, the 27 square kilometre natural island lying just 500 metres offshore Abu Dhabi city, is now complete. The new twenty one kilometre road, which gives construction vehicles access, directly links the island with Shahama/Abu Dhabi Airport road.
Saadiyat Island is the flagship project of Tourism Development & Investment Company (TDIC), which is overseeing the island’s transformation into a strategic international tourism, cultural and residential destination. The island has been master planned to include seven distinct districts, delivering a multitude of experiences, including its now world-renowned Cultural District which will be home to the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi museums.
