Amna bint Ahmed Al Romaihi, Minister of Housing and Urban Planning, underscored the ministry’s commitment to enhancing social housing services as a key priority within Bahrain's comprehensive development process, led by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and supported by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and PrimeMinister, in accordance with the Government Programme (2023–2026).
The minister announced the commencement of construction this month on 372 housing units and apartments in Khalifa City, as part of ongoing housing projects.
The ministry has completed site preparations and awarded the tender for the project, which includes 336 housing units and 36 owner ship apartments, with work set to begin before the end of the month, she added.
AlRomaihi said the project features modern designs tailored to Bahraini family needs, including four-bedroom units with living spaces, a kitchen, storage, and infrastructure such as roads, sewage, drainage, electricity, and water networks.
The minister emphasised that this project will address housing demands in the Southern Governorate, contributing to the Government Programme’s goals of providing adequate housing for citizens.
AlRomaihi underscored the ministry’s efforts to advance other projects in partnership with the private sector, including Al Buhair Housing Project (76 units), Hawrat Sanad Project (47 units), and plans to develop approximately 3,000 units in Khalifa City in the next phase.
