H.E. Eng. Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Al-Meer
President of the Public Works Authority
Qatar's infrastructure has become an example to be followed regionally and internationally, owing to its fundamentals and global standards that achieve excellence and sustainable development placing Qatar as the world's leading countries. This remarkable progress would not have been possible without the significant and unlimited support of the wise leadership, which prioritized infrastructure development as the cornerstone of achieving Qatar's National Vision 2030.
Within this context, the Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ plays a pivotal role in establishing modern, world-class infrastructure that meets national aspirations and supports quality of life; The Authority's efforts include the design and implementation of road and highway networks and an integrated drainage network, as well as the improvement of infrastructure for citizens' areas and the construction of public buildings in line with the highest international standards.
This advanced infrastructure contributes to improving quality of life in Qatar, making it a global destination of choice for living, working and investing. Modern highway networks and advanced facilities provide smooth transportation and exceptional ease, while smart buildings and sustainable projects add a new dimension that reflects the level of leisure and modern life Qatar offers its citizens, residents and visitors.
The Authority adopts the latest building and digital transformation technologies and automation to improve efficiency, productivity, and safety, meeting the needs of the present and future. These innovative solutions also contribute to replacing traditional labour with modern means of accelerating delivery and reducing costs, reflecting the Authority’s commitment to innovation and development.
Sustainability is a key pillar in all of Ashghal’s projects, where the Authority is committed to recycling initiatives and the use of environmentally friendly materials, such as the reuse of asphalt and construction waste, and the use of treated water for irrigation and cooling, which promote a balance between economic development and environmental conservation, in line with the State's sustainable development goals.
Ashghal believes that investing in Qatari human resources is an investment in Qatar's future and seeks to create a new generation of Qatari competencies capable of innovation and creativity in the management of infrastructure projects and strives to foster a spirit of belonging and dedication to work among national cadres to ensure sustainable excellence and leadership in infrastructure projects.
Therefore, Ashghal sets its sights on maintaining its projects as a global role model, combining innovation, sustainability and excellence to deliver exceptional infrastructure.
