Work is continuing on a new public park in Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq, where land that had been abandoned for years is being transformed into a modern open space designed for families and the local community.

The new park, covering around 5,500 square metres along Triq il-Kosta, will be the first open space of its kind in the area. It is expected to serve as a hub for recreation, relaxation and nature for residents living nearby.

Around 1,250 people live within a ten minute walk of the site, making the park easily accessible to many families.

Minister for the Environment, Energy and Public Cleanliness Miriam Dalli, together with Minister for European Funds and the Implementation of the Electoral Programme Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi, recently visited the site to observe the progress of the project, which has now reached an advanced stage.

“Our vision for our country is continuing to become a reality. This project is a concrete transformation of abandoned land into a high quality open space that will be enjoyed by thousands of families living nearby,” said Minister Miriam Dalli.

She explained that the park will include several family friendly features, including a zipline and a pirate ship, creating a safe and attractive environment for children, families and the elderly.

“We are continuing to invest in sustainable spaces that improve quality of life and bring nature closer to people,” she added.

Minister Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi said the project forms part of a wider €15.8 million investment, largely supported by European Funds. The specific investment for the Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq park amounts to nearly €1 million.

He noted that these funds are supporting projects that improve the environment and quality of life. “This is a clear example of how European Funds are supporting a long term vision for a cleaner, greener country,” he said.
