Land reclamation at Giraavaru Falhu has resumed after a five-month pause, according to reports.
Authorities said 115 hectares, or 68.8 per cent of the project, have now been completed. The restart marks the third attempt to advance the reclamation after earlier interruptions.
Giraavaru Falhu forms part of broader land-creation efforts in the Greater Malé region aimed at expanding residential, commercial and infrastructure space. Previous phases faced delays linked to funding, logistics and environmental considerations.
The resumption comes amid continued public and political discussion of large-scale reclamation projects, including the much larger Rasmalé development. Officials have not yet released a revised completion timeline for Giraavaru Falhu.
Further updates on dredging progress and the allocation of reclaimed land are expected as work continues.
