🔧💧 Xogħlijiet ta’ Titjib fuq is-Service Pillars fil-Port tal-Veċċja f'San Pawl il-Baħar.

Wara diversi ħsarat speċjalment wara maltempati🌀 li jwassal biex jieqfu joperaw is-Service Pillars tal-Veċċja f'San Pawl il-Baħar, bħalissa għaddejjin xogħlijiet sabiex jiġi evitat id-dħul tal-ilma fis-Service Pillars u titjieb l-konnessjoni tal-ilma. ✅

⚡ Barra minn hekk, qed issir separazzjoni tas-sistema elettrika biex kull Service Pillar ikun jista’ jopera b’mod indipendenti. Dan ifisser li jekk iseħħ fault jew problema f’pillar wieħed, ma jiġux affettwati pillars oħra.

🎯 Dawn l-interventi qed isiru biex intejbu l-effiċjenza, is-sigurtà u r-reżiljenza tal-infrastruttura, filwaqt li nnaqqsu l-interruzzjonijiet fis-servizz għas-sajjieda tal-post.

🔧⚓️ Qed nagħtu spinta ġdida lill-portijiet tas-sajd tagħna!

Bdew ix-xogħlijiet biex il-winċis eżistenti, li uħud minnhom għandhom madwar 50 sena, jiġu sostitwiti b’winċis moderni u aktar effiċjenti.

✅ L-ewwel fażi tal-proġett diġà tinsab għaddejja billi tneħħew winċis f’

📍 Marsaxlokk
📍 Marsaskala.

Se nkomplu f'📍San Ġiljan u📍f'Birżebbuġa.

Dan l-investiment ta' madwar €400,000 💶 se jkompli jsaħħaħ l-infrastruttura marittima u joffri faċilitajiet aktar moderni lis-sajjieda tagħna. 🎣

⚓🚧 Manufacturing Progress Update – New Marine Winches 🚧⚓

✅ Manufacturing of the new marine winches is progressing well as part of the Department’s investment in upgrading fisheries infrastructure around Malta.

These modern winches will replace ageing manual units currently used in various fishing ports, providing safer, more reliable and more efficient vessel hauling operations for our fishermen.

🎣⚓ The project will help improve working conditions, reduce downtime and support the long-term sustainability of Malta’s fishing communities.

🤝🇲🇹 We remain committed to investing in modern infrastructure that directly benefits our fishermen and strengthens the future of the fisheries sector.
