MTCC completes reclamation of Kudagiri Picnic Island

Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC) has completed the land reclamation of Kudagiri Picnic Island in Kaafu Atoll.

MTCC was contracted to reclaim land for Kudagiri Picnic Island in November last year. The island is being developed as a picnic destination for residents of the Greater Male’ Region.

MTCC revealed the land reclamation component of the project has been completed. The state-owned company said shore protection of the island will also be completed within the next month.

The picnic island will be developed with family rooms, food outlets, huts and barbeque areas as well as changing rooms with lockers, nursing rooms and prayer rooms. The island will also have an area allocated for events.

Residents of the Greater Male’ Region currently do not have a convenient picnic location. The residents in the capital region lost the only picnic island within the accessible proximity following the redevelopment of Kudabandos as a resort.
