Government Moves Ahead With Fushidhiggaru Reclamation Despite Budget Cut
Sri Lanka's Capital Marine and Civil Construction (CMC) has been awarded a contract to reclaim land in Fushidhiggaru lagoon, launching the first phase of the government's housing and urban development project even though parliament removed MVR 400 million allocated for it from the 2024 budget. The three-year plan proposes MVR 1.4 billion to reclaim 1,280 hectares and build 31,500 housing units, while Urbanco this week paused Hulhumalé western lagoon reclamation for dredger repairs and environmental reasons.
