The Great Harbour Regeneration Corporation (GHRC) will begin the regeneration of the Marina Garden in the coming weeks, following the completion of the Xatt tal-Pietà project. Minister for the Environment, Energy, and Regeneration of the Great Port, Miriam Dalli, and GHRC CEO, Gino Cauchi, shared the plans during a visit to the site.
The Xatt tal Pietà project involved nearly a kilometre of upgraded promenade with new lighting, railings, and additional green spaces, benefiting both pedestrians and cyclists.
The upcoming Marina Garden regeneration will cover 4,400 m², with new pathways, fountain repairs, and enhanced amenities like benches and lighting. The improvements aim to create better open spaces and enhance the area’s beauty and functionality.
Cauchi noted that the project was part of a wider initiative to revitalize public spaces in the region. The new greenway, designed for cyclists and joggers, will also be included in the works, with minimal disruption to existing parking.
