MVR462 Million Malé Streetscaping Project

President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih: Malé Streetscaping Project will shape the development of Malé as the safer, more convenient city envisioned by his Administration.

During the inauguration of the project yesterday, President Solih highlighted conditions of roads which leads to hazards to motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians. He added that the provision of adequate essential services is also one of these concerns.

The project incorporates critical infrastructure for parking, stormwater drainage, dewatering for construction sites, and an active fire hydrant system. It would see the development of a total of 18.08 kilometres of roads, with the first phase of the project set to be completed in July.

President affirmed that the development of 3,000 housing units would commence within a month, with work on another 4,000 set to start later this year.
