The Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning said that a tender for the project to develop the popular Isa Town market in the Southern Governorate has been launched by the Tender Board, with the deadline for submitting bids set for April 7.

The project will be supervised by the construction and maintenance projects sector at the Ministry, as it aims to provide a comfortable environment for market-goers and give it a civilised appearance befitting the development and urban renaissance in the Kingdom, in addition to providing appropriate ventilation within the market to stimulate commercial movement.

The project includes air conditioning works in the dome area and the corridors of the current Isa Town market, in addition to implementing panels and related electrical installations, installing a smoke expulsion system and a fire fighting system, and updating the fire and smoke detection system in line with the highest international standards and civil defence requirements for firefighting and safety.
