Work is under way on a new hub for the UAE motorsport industry as part of the commercial transformation of MotorCity and its showcase place, Dubai Autodrome.

Developed by Union Properties and Multilink Acquiring, the 6,000 square metre Motorsport Business Park, located in the centre of the 5.39 kilometre race circuit, will certainly unite every one of the significant UAE motorsport organisations and competing teams.

Due for conclusion in December 2017, the project will certainly match the recently established Grandstand Retail Plaza, which fits a variety of stores overlooking the main straight at Dubai Autodrome, and The Bow Shopping center.

It is the current stage of growth including an ever-expanding series of homes, shops and restaurants to the MotorCity community which has been expanding steadily around Dubai Autodrome given that 2004.

The new Motorsport Business Park will house several firms and teams in systems of 200 and 420 square metres, or even prior to ground was damaged on site recently the level of need for space has actually made an extension likely.

Ryan Trutch, Dubai Autodrome Special Projects Manager, claimed: "This bespoke facility will be a game changer for the motorsports industry in Dubai as it brings the significant stakeholders involved in UAE motorsports with each other under one big roof. It will offer these services simple access to our circuit, whether for testing or client experiences."

Richard Birch, Dubai Autodrome General Manager, included: "We have been bewildered by rate of interest in the new project and have also pondered a stage two for 2018.

" But initially we wish to concentrate on obtaining phase one constructed. We had to get rid of some frustrating delays in the previous eight months, however I'm really happy to say we have finally broken ground on the project and moving on promptly."

In a 2016 survey carried out by Service Market, residents voted MotorCity as the most effective place to live in Dubai.

The recent opening of the Grandstand Retail Plaza in the grandstand location of Dubai Autodrome included a range of cafes, motorbike shops, a health club and other outlets, all overlooking the circuit, which hosts a busy season of race conferences headlined by the Hankook 24H Dubai, one of the world's leading endurance occasions.

Ryan Trutch said: "We have been discerning in attracting only those services having good harmonies with our own industrial procedures and neighbouring business.

" With the opening in current months of the Ribbon Shopping center and the Retail Plaza the centerpiece of MotorCity has moved, developing a brand-new buzz in the local community for residents and visitors."
