The current percentage of completion is 43.2 percent. The project comprises internal road and infrastructure works, such as sewerage, storm water and potable water networks, as well as internal road lighting.

Al Mazrouei added, "Phase 22 is an internal road construction project spanning various areas in Al Ain City. The AED113.71-million project started in December 2016 over an area of 350,000 square metres. The project is expected to be completed in October this year.
