Male’ Water and Sewerage Company Private Limited (MWSC) has stated that the water and sewerage project in Maalhos, Baa Atoll, will be completed by June.
MWSC stated that the construction of the tanks has been completed while the pump station works are in progress. The company expects to complete the rest of the project by June by finishing the electrical works and developing a sea outflow via horizontal dredging.
The water and sewerage project in Maalhos was contracted to MWSC in December 2020 at a cost of USD3.9 million. MWSC officially commenced the project in 2021 but has faced delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
