The emirate will be split into five main urban areas, focusing the main draws of the city to specific zones: Deira / Bur Dubai (city’s historical essence), Downtown / Business Bay (global financial hub), Dubai Marina / JBR (tourism and entertainment), Expo 2020 (international gate for exhibitions and events), and Dubai Silicon Oasis (knowledge and innovation centre).
The "people-led" development aims to increase a sense of community across the emirate, designating integrated service centres in each area and improving interconnectivity by ensuring 55 per cent of the population will live within 800 metres of a main public transport station.
