MTCC Awarded Infrastructure Projects in Maarandhoo and Innamadhoo

The Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC) has been awarded contracts to undertake major coastal protection and land development works in Ha. Maarandhoo and develop a swimming area in R. Innamadhoo.

The agreements were signed today at a ceremony held at the Ministry of Housing, Land and Urban Development. State Minister Ismail Hammeed signed the agreements on behalf of the Ministry, while MTCC Deputy Managing Director Mohamed Jamsheed signed on behalf of the company.

In HA. Maarandhoo, MTCC will undertake extensive coastal protection and land development works, including the backfilling of 2.28 hectares of land. The project will also involve the construction of a 939 metre rock boulder revetment, a 312 metre low crested rock boulder breakwater and a 180 metre groin.

The project is expected to strengthen protection against coastal erosion while creating additional land to support the island’s future development.

In R. Innamadhoo, MTCC will develop a swimming area together with key coastal protection structures. The project, which is scheduled for completion within 180 days, includes a 100 metre rock boulder groin, a 200 metre rock boulder breakwater and beach nourishment covering approximately 4,100 cubic metres.

The latest agreements add to MTCC’s expanding portfolio of infrastructure projects across the country. The company was recently contracted to undertake development works in nine other islands, with most of those projects involving harbour development and coastal protection.

The projects reflect the government’s continued focus on strengthening island infrastructure, protecting vulnerable coastlines and improving public spaces for communities across the Maldives.

MTCC remains a key implementing company for major national infrastructure projects, with its work covering harbour development, land reclamation, coastal protection and other essential infrastructure.
