A popular historic market in the Northern Governorate is set for a major facelift aimed at modernising its facilities and improving its long-term appeal.
The project will see Hamad Town’s iconic Suq Waqif undergo comprehensive redevelopment, beginning with the relocation of all existing shops and restaurants to nearby buildings – which has already been done – and paving the way for a full-scale revamp of the original market area.
Work officially began yesterday, with plans to introduce new services, amenities and improved infrastructure.
