Oman’s Sultan Haitham City is witnessing a significant acceleration in the implementation of its infrastructure and primary facility packages.
This progress coincides with the issuance of three new construction tenders within Package Nine of the city’s works, covering streetscaping and aesthetic landscaping for main roads, the execution of the Central Park and Wadi, and the construction of the Rehabilitation Complex for Persons with Disabilities.
These tenders are part of an advanced executive track, following the awarding of eight infrastructure construction packages with an investment value of RO 205 million, as work advances across residential neighborhoods and vital city facilities.
The newly issued tenders include Package (9-A) for streetscaping and aesthetic landscaping of main roads, covering afforestation, pavement treatments, decorative elements, and urban facades for the city’s primary movement axes.
Package (9-B) focuses on the construction of the Central Park and Wadi, including all construction and infrastructure works to develop the city’s primary green space across 1.64 million square meters. This area will feature a network of pedestrian paths, bridges, event zones, water features, and open natural spaces, positioning it as a hub for daily life, recreation, and community activities.
The tenders also cover the construction of the Rehabilitation Complex for Persons with Disabilities, in collaboration with the Ministry of Social Development. This project presents an advanced national model for care and rehabilitation through five specialized tracks in a single facility with a capacity for 360 cases. The complex will house specialized facilities, including flexible therapeutic spaces, sensory environments for autism spectrum disorder, physical therapy and motor rehabilitation zones, vocational training halls, and therapeutic gardens. It also includes community facilities accessible after working hours, such as a gymnasium and a theater. The center is being built on an area exceeding 10,000 square meters, with a total built-up area of 16,000 square meters.
