Prime Minister Robert Abela presented the best Regeneration plan for the Grand Harbour which will be open for public consultation and immediately after that the process of working with the private sector to carry out this regeneration will begin. During the official launch of the public consultation on the Regeneration of the Grand Harbour, Prime Minister Robert Abela stressed that this project which revolves around the most beautiful harbour in the Mediterranean will be ambitious, massive and will leave a mark on how we are changing and we want to continue changing our country for the better.<\/p>\n
The regeneration of the Grand Harbour will be divided into four phases, with the aim of creating an area of \u200b\u200binternational standard that pays tribute to Malta’s maritime heritage while offering spaces where culture, services and recreation can coexist. The plan for the first phase focuses on the transformation of the Marsa waterfront and the site of the former power station into a mixed and vibrant area, with modern, sustainable and quality uses, which will create new opportunities and bring the harbour closer to people and families. The designers of this project are the experts from the renowned international firm Champan Taylor.<\/p>\n
He added that this project is part of this Government’s vision to give value and quality to areas and sites that have been left in a state of abandonment for many years. The Prime Minister made reference to a number of projects not only for beautification but above all projects that protect the environment and people’s health, which have been carried out in recent years around the Grand Harbour.<\/p>\n
Prime Minister Abela recalled how this administration was instrumental in closing the Marsa power station once and for all. \u201cWe must continue to do justice to this area and deliver the most beautiful project that a Government has ever undertaken in the modern history of our country,\u201d Dr Abela reiterated.<\/p>\n
He said that the Government truly believes in the potential of this area and the surrounding localities, particularly Marsa which has enormous potential and therefore this holistic plan is being taken forward which will lead to quality investment that creates wealth. A project which is aligned with the Malta 2050 Vision.<\/p>\n
Dr Abela said that the Grand Harbour regeneration project connects with five other projects that the Government has recently launched. That of Manoel Island, WhiteRocks, Fort San Salvator, Fort Tign\u00e9 , and Fort Campbell. \u201cThese are five projects that we will carry out to improve the quality of life of our families. While the ambition is great, the will to achieve it is greater,\u201d the Prime Minister said.<\/p>\n
Dr Abela also assured that the characteristics of the port will not change, but rather will emerge more with the legacy left to us by our ancestors. While he reiterated that every locality bordering this port will benefit from this regeneration.<\/p>\n
