Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC) has commenced physical work on the project to develop a harbor in HA. Muraidhoo – an island which has seen multiple fatalities in marine incidents. 

The work was inaugurated by Baarah MP Ahmed Abdulla in a ceremony on Sunday. 

MTCC’s Managing Director Adam Azim said the new harbor will offer a solution to many of the issues facing Muraidhoo.

Under the project, MTCC will dredge the harbor and the harbor channel, and construct a 212-meter quay wall, a 470-meter breakwater, repair a 170-meter breakwater, and construct a 105-meter revetment. 

The project is valued at MVR 33.72 million. 

MTCC expects to complete the project before the end of this year. 

Muraidhoo is an island of some 700 people.
