Four months of work will begin on Dubai's Marina Promenade on Tuesday.
Damaged paving will be removed and replaced, according to a notice issued by developers Emaar.
The eight-kilometre walk, winding around Dubai Marina, is popular with residents and tourists.
“Emaar master community management would like to inform all residents that paving works will be carried out from 16 February to June 2021 around the whole of Marina Promenade,” read the notice.
It said the renovations will involve "replacing sections of damaged paving and erecting hoardings around the work area".
Last year, Emaar brought in a 12 kilometres an hour speed limit on the promenade, to prevent e-scooter riders and cyclists from speeding and endangering pedestrians.

Another way to earn air miles
In addition to the Emirates and Etihad programmes, there is the Air Miles Middle East card, which offers members the ability to choose any airline, has no black-out dates and no restrictions on seat availability. Air Miles is linked up to HSBC credit cards and can also be earned through retail partners such as Spinneys, Sharaf DG and The Toy Store.
An Emirates Dubai-London round-trip ticket costs 180,000 miles on the Air Miles website. But customers earn these ‘miles’ at a much faster rate than airline miles. Adidas offers two air miles per Dh1 spent. Air Miles has partnerships with websites as well, so booking.com and agoda.com offer three miles per Dh1 spent.
“If you use your HSBC credit card when shopping at our partners, you are able to earn Air Miles twice which will mean you can get that flight reward faster and for less spend,” says Paul Lacey, the managing director for Europe, Middle East and India for Aimia, which owns and operates Air Miles Middle East.
