Plans are underway to modernise a historic northern Bahraini village set to be close to the main hub for the kingdom’s proposed metro station, the new relocated central market and a heritage trail.
Bahrain’s ambitious Buri masterplan – one of the most prominent among 96 urban development schemes recently completed by the Urban Planning and Development Authority – has won widespread praise from MP Dr Muneer Suroor and residents of the area, who hailed it as a transformative project that balances modernisation with heritage preservation.
