This project is a collaboration between ASER Construction and the Addis Ababa City Administration’s Urban Beautification and Green Area Bureau. The project is progressing as planned, with key goals including river conservation, environmental cleanliness, and the establishment of recreational areas for the community.
Phase 1 of the project, covering the area from the Italian Embassy to Bela Bridge, is nearing completion. The main contract work is 96% finished, while additional tasks have reached 61% completion.
Spanning 430 meters, this phase focuses on creating community-friendly spaces such as social interaction areas, multi-purpose recreational zones, shared gathering spaces, safe play areas for children, and pedestrian pathways. Most of these facilities have been built, with landscaping and aesthetic improvements currently underway.
With Phase 1 almost complete, preparations for Phase 2 are well underway. This next phase, extending from Bela Bridge to Kebena Roundabout, is currently 12% complete and will emphasize environmental protection and improved accessibility along the riverside.
The project is being developed with a focus on preserving the natural environment.
It currently employs 42 permanent and 330 temporary workers.
