The UAE will have a new capital city by 2028 under development plans being unrolled through Abu Dhabi’s urban strategy framework.

The city, to be developed in Khalifa City near Abu Dhabi, will be a contemporary Arab city reflecting a sustainable economy rather than uncontrolled growth, UAE daily Khaleej Times reported on Thursday.

Design work has started on the new capital, which will span an area of 4,900 hectares and be located about 15km from Abu Dhabi city, the newspaper said.
