Dozens of parks will reopen in Dubai on Monday. The emirate closed all public open spaces in the middle of March to contain the spread of Covid-19. Last week, officials from the Supreme Committee of Crisis and Disaster Management announced public parks would welcome visitors again. But only a handful reopened in the following days, alongside walking, running and cycling tracks across the city. Authorities have now said that the emirate will restore full park services in “gradual and successive phases”. Seventy neighbourhood parks will welcome visitors from Monday, followed by Mushrif, Al Mamzar, Al Khor, Zabeel and Al Safa parks in the last phase on May 25. Here, <em>The National</em> breaks down the phases.
