About Al Shamkhah

Al Shamkhah is a residential neighbourhood located far from central Abu Dhabi. On the north-eastern side, it borders the major highway in UAE, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311). Along the northern length of the community, Sweihan Road leads towards the outskirts of Abu Dhabi. Al Shamkha Abu Dhabi is strategically located closer to the industrial area of Mussafah. The residential community is currently under development. It will be home to around 22,000 people when it is completed.

Al Shamkha is one of the most popular freehold areas in Abu Dhabi. Some areas around the community were redeveloped in 2016. The Municipality of Abu Dhabi and Abu Dhabi Housing Authority has overseen the development of residential plots within the area. Many projects are still under development and should be completed soon as Al Shamkha is part of the strategic 2030 vision for Abu Dhabi. Due to the recent construction, many communal facilities such as schools, commercial spaces, health facilities, parks, entertainment options, cycle lanes and mosques have been added.
