Dubai Marina is obviously not a part of Dubai. Today it looks like this:
I've complained about this in the past, in fact a year ago. Emaar said it's the responsibility of construction companies to keep their area clean. Since then there's been a broom-man on each site trying to sweep, with a normal domestic broom, the sand back from the road.
But there are now many finished buildings with people living in them. There are no broom-men at those sites. And there are common areas such as roundabouts for which construction companies obviously can't be responsible.
But no-one is cleaning these finished areas, so the sand and rubbish just keeps building up.
I think we've established that the new areas such as Dubai Marina are, amazingly, outside the responsibility of the Municipality. I wonder whether the RTA has any authority or is it all down to the Master Developer?
More e-mails to Emaar are in order I think...

It appears one would be better off moving into a tent given these photos. At least the sand would be part of the natural scenery and the rent would be free.
Are there sandstorms in dubai?
Ldu, yes we do sometimes, not too often thankfully. We actually get fog more often than we get sandstorms. Just for you I'll put some photos on a new posting so you can see what we get when a sandstorm hits :-)
