Meet The 20 Minute City

Dubai has unveiled phase two of its ambitious 2040 Master Plan, called the "20-minute city." The plan aims to transform a whopping 60 percent of Dubai's area into nature reserves and increase public beaches by 400 percent. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid detailed phase two of the long-term strategy, which aims to develop the city's infrastructure further so residents can access 80 percent of their daily needs and destinations within 20 minutes by foot or bike!

According to TimeOut, "Other highlights include calls for high-yield agriculture and farming by identifying suitable locations and developing the infrastructure and facilities, as well as meeting supply demands in the property sector."

We at Yalla Deals believe that this ambitious project will catapult Dubai to the top of the best cities in the world list. One of the current problems we face is the inability to access the metro system by foot in all parts of the city. That will soon change with massive investments in infrastructure. Just imagine being able to get to your destination by foot any where in Dubai because of convenient access to transport public systems!
