16 Feb 2026 CW Team

L&T did not disclose financial details of the order, but the company classifies a significant order as ranging between Rs 10 billion (bn) and Rs 25 billion (bn). The project is scheduled for completion in 36 months and will be delivered under the timelines agreed with the client. The award is aligned with the company's ongoing focus on international transport infrastructure projects. The classification underscores the scale of the project within the company's order book.

The scope includes upgrading the existing road corridor stretching from Emirates Road E611 to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road E311 and involves widening the current two-lane dual carriageway into a four-lane dual carriageway in each direction. The work is intended to increase network capacity and ease traffic flow along a key arterial link in Dubai. Technical and logistical planning will be carried out by the firm to manage the widening works within the urban environment. Execution will require phased works and traffic management to minimise disruption.

The project adds to L&T's portfolio of overseas infrastructure contracts and is expected to support regional mobility objectives while demonstrating the company's ability to execute complex road upgrades. The Transportation Infrastructure business vertical will coordinate construction, traffic management and stakeholder engagement until handover. Progress will be monitored against the 36-month schedule to ensure delivery of the intended capacity improvements. The upgrade is expected to support economic activity and improve network resilience in the corridor.
