The Municipality of Abu Dhabi City has completed dressing up the city's roads and streets by installing illuminations of different shapes and designs ahead of the Holy month of Ramadan.
The preparations befit the distinguished profile of the UAE capital in the context of the municipality's ongoing endeavours to upgrade the appearance of the city as one of the top metropolitan cities worldwide.
Decorative lighting works include Islamic designs inspired by the spiritual flavour of the Holy Ramadan, thus generating more glamour and tranquillity befitting the exclusivity of the month.
Thousands of decorative illuminated electrical objects have been installed, including more than 600 pink-coloured and 1,100 white-coloured string lights, in addition to net lights of 860 bulbs as well as 700 illuminated engineering shapes with diverse designs and dimensions measuring two to three metres in length and 120cm to 220cm in width.
Besides that the Municipality has also set up 500 artistic pieces including 250 crescent-shaped pieces, 250 star-shaped pieces, and 30 engineering shapes measuring two to four metres in width with seven gradually-alternating lights.
The Municipality was keen on using best-in-class electric cables to complete the decorative project for the safety of the public.
Cables used measured more than 2200 metres in length, and the Municipality approved the use of heavy duty insulating materials capable of enduring all climatic conditions.
It also authorised the use of the best bulbs in place (LED and IP65) in all engineering shapes, considering their distinctive nature in preserving the environment, saving 70 per cent of electricity consumption and conforming to top-class standards in terms of security and safety. Emirates Business
