25th Feb 2015 07:46

LONDON (Alliance News) - Carillion PLC Wednesday said its United Arab Emirates joint venture Al Futtaim Carillion has been selected as preferred bidder for two contracts which together are worth GBP380 million.

In a statement, Carillion said Meraas, a Dubai-based holding company, has selected AFC as the preferred bidder for a GBP225 million contract to build a mixed-use development on the Dubai Creek waterfront. The project consists of food, beverage and other retail buildings, underground and multi-storey car parks, three hotels, a mosque, museums, traditional workshops and a market.

Meraas has also selected AFC as the preferred bidder for a GBP155 million contract for the construction of 'La Mer' at Jumeirah in Dubai. The project involves the construction of a mixture of top-end retail and public-facility buildings, together with substantial external landscaping to create over 1 kilometer of beach-themed frontage.
