SmartCity Malta announced in a statement yesterday that it will shortly commence the development of the project’s infrastructure network.

Below and above ground networks will serve as the backbone of services provided at SmartCity Malta to cater for the daily function and activity of business partners.

Recently appointed contractor 3 Bees JV is responsible for infrastructure works at SmartCity Malta’s Phase One, which includes the building of service culverts and the installation of below ground utilities.

The road base and pavement foundations will also be laid. The contractor has demonstrated significant experience in the area of public sector work, confirming its credentials and qualifications to meet the requirements of SmartCity Malta.

SmartCity Malta is to introduce to the site various networks of services, ranging from potable, irrigation and storm-water systems, to the connection of power cables. These essential utilities will provide a benchmark for creating and sustaining an ICT and media business destination.

Above ground, the surfaces will be enforced and made ready to receive the final road and landscape treatments. The creation of these road networks will allow for free-flowing circulation, both of a vehicular and pedestrian nature, in and around SmartCity Malta.

The planned infrastructure of SmartCity Malta focuses on the relationships between structures, networked systems and the environment. Their harmonious integration will support continued growth of the development, providing good working conditions for SmartCity Malta business partners and knowledge workers.
