Infrastructure Malta announces conclusion of adjudication process for the Msida Creek Project

Infrastructure Malta has announced the conclusion of the adjudication process for the tender of the Msida Creek Project, a significant infrastructure development. Following a thorough evaluation, the proposal from EPE JV successfully met the established criteria for the project.

The Msida Creek Project, envisioned to replace the current traffic light junctions with a new flyover, has moved a step closer to realisation. This is the first major road infrastructure project in Malta that integrates a comprehensive 10-year operations and maintenance period.

The project will incorporate facilites for alternative modes of travel, including cycling and walking. The project will also provide for a major upgrade and embellishment of the surrounding areas with new recreational zones. Around 60% of the Msida Creek Project will be dedicated to open public spaces, creating a more pleasant environment in the centre of this locality.

The new open spaces and recreational zones being created, will include a new 2,200 metres squared piazza in front of the Parish Church and a seawater channel, the latter also forming part of a plan to prevent flooding. This 300-metre channel will be surrounded with pathways in a landscaped area designated for recreational facilities.

Infrastructure Malta looks forward to work closely with EPE JV and other stakeholders to bring the Msida Creek Project to fruition. This project signifies a crucial step towards enhancing the quality, efficiency, and sustainability of Malta’s infrastructure, providing the necessary capacity to overcome current challenges and meet future requirements.
