Ahmed Mohammed Al Hammadi, director general of the RAK Public Works Department, explained that the path is specifically designed with specifications that will allow joggers and runners to practice their sport on a dedicated pathway.
He added that the department began maintenance work on the corniche on Tuesday, as instructed by Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qassimi member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah.
