Cityscape to showcase life-size model of Abu Dhabi landscape in 2030
ABU DHABI — The first-ever life size model of Abu Dhabi’s urban landscape as envisioned in ‘Vision 2030’ document will be unveiled at the ensuing Cityscape event by Abu Dhabi Urban Planning Council (UPC).
The 23x17 metre model marks a milestone moment for the economic, cultural, environmental and social aspirations of Abu Dhabi as it brings together in a single format all the various masterplans and components for one of the world’s most ambitious urban development projects, the UPC said in a Press release here on Tuesday.
To be displayed at the UPC’s Cityscape stand, the model stretches from the Corniche on Abu Dhabi’s main island to Shahama, Mussafah and Al Falah on the mainland and includes the islands of Saadiyat, Yas, Lulu, Reem and Sowwah, which have been earmarked as key development areas of Capital 2030.
The model adopts 1:2000 scale to represent the city and this enabled the designers to include significant details of various existing landmarks such as the Emirates Palace and the Grand Mosque as well as some of the iconic projects under development including Sowwah Square, Masdar and the tower on Lulu Island.
The model will be surrounded by a selection of interactive digital totems which will enable the visitors to gain more insights into the framework plans for the emirate and some of the more technical aspects of the UPC’s work in creating a sustainable next generation Arab Capital. Detailed and interactive information on the 2030 urban structure framework plans for Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Gharbia on these kiosks will present to the visitors a holistic impression of the scope of Vision 2030 urban development initiative for the entire Abu Dhabi Emirate. UPC will also showcase information on other key development initiatives including street design and infrastructure, which will showcase the principles of the recently-launched Urban Street Design Manual and highlights of some of the planned changes to make Abu Dhabi’s streets safer, more vibrant.
