Three bids have been submitted for the construction of the Msida Creek flyover project, Infrastructure Malta said on Tuesday upon the conclusion of the bidding process on the project tender.

The roads agency said that bids were received from EPE JV, amounting to €34,700,007.7, Shining Star Infrastructure and Construction Co. Ltd, amounting to €49,749,766.90, and RM Construction Ltd, amounting to €40,798,652.99.

Infrastructure Malta on Tuesday announced the successful closure of the tender call process for the Msida Creek project, a significant infrastructure development.

The project involves the construction of a new flyover intended to replace the existing traffic light junctions and incorporate facilities for alternative modes of travel. This ambitious project garnered substantial interest from the industry.

The bidding process concluded with the submission of three competitive proposals to undertake this transformative project, the agency said.

“This positive response is perceived as a vote of confidence in Malta's commitment to improve the quality, efficiency, safety and sustainability of Malta’s infrastructure. It also aims to provide the necessary capacity to overcome existing challenges and meet future requirements,” Infrastructure Malta said.

“As we move forward, the adjudication process is set to commence immediately, marking the next phase in determining the most suitable partner for this major project. This meticulous evaluation process will ensure that the selected bidder aligns seamlessly with our vision for the Msida Creek project and possesses the expertise necessary to deliver high standard outputs.”

The agency expressed its gratitude to all participating entities and said that it looks forward to a successful collaboration that will bring the Msida Creek Project to fruition.

“Notably, this project, which includes a major upgrade and embellishment of the surrounding areas with new recreational zones, represents the first major road infrastructure project that incorporates a comprehensive 10-year operations and maintenance period.”
