The Ministry of Construction, Housing and Infrastructure announced the update via X, confirming that 100 per cent of the reclamation work is now complete.
According to the Ministry, the project has now moved into its next phase, which involves the construction of shore protection structures.
The project, valued at $6.8 million, includes the reclamation of 25 hectares of land, along with shore protection works comprising 1,080 meters of revetment and 80 meters of groyne construction.
