Work begins on one of Bahrain's largest ever infrastructure projects at Riffa Views

Under the contract Cybarco - in a joint venture with Tebet Enterprises - will undertake one of Bahrain's largest ever infrastructure projects to build roads, telecommunications cabling, electricity and water supplies for the luxury residential development.

At 270 hectares - approximately the size of 360 football stadiums - Riffa Views Signature Estates boasts almost 1000 luxury residences, an 18-hole golf course, a 9-hole short course, sports, leisure and school facilities. The size and complexity of the development represents Bahrain's biggest and most complex infrastructure project requiring the laying of over 160 kilometers of underground electric cabling - enough to circumvent the entire island of Bahrain - as well as almost 14 kilometers of rainwater drainage piping, 26 kilometers of potable water piping, 69 kilometers of telephone network cabling, 32 kilometers of street light cabling and 18 kilometers of roads.

Commenting on the selection of Cybarco, Richard Browning, Chief Executive Officer of Riffa Golf and Residential Development Company said,

"The Riffa Views project is right on schedule, and we are delighted to welcome Cybarco at the beginning of our most intensive construction phase. The strength of our partnership lies in the impressive portfolio of expertise that Cybarco brings to the Riffa Views development project. Cybarco has an outstanding track record which includes the construction of some of Bahrain's most prestigious landmarks and infrastructure facilities, and its joint venture with Tebet Enterprises ensures the highest quality project management for Riffa Views Signature Estates."

"The construction of infrastructure facilities for a project of this magnitude is a colossal undertaking. Getting this essential stage right is central to the whole project. It means that when handed the keys to a new home in Riffa Views, the owner can quite rightly expect a fully functioning home with everything working at the turn of a tap or the flick of a switch."

"Riffa Views Signature Estates is a superior development designed to compete at the highest level on the international property market. To achieve this requires a commitment to quality at every stage and in every aspect of the project's development."

Costas Demou, Middle East Director of Cybarco Ltd. said, "We are thrilled to join Riffa Views in working towards creating a level of excellence in project design, construction and delivery. Our priority is to ensure a top quality infrastructure system is in place to provide the Riffa Views community the highest international standard of utilities and services."
