How has construction changed in Malta in recent years?
Malta is currently experiencing a construction boom, with many large scale projects underway or in the pipeline. As with the UK, the global recession hit the construction industry hard in Malta, with a scale-back in building within the tourist industry as less holiday makers chose to travel abroad.
Fortunately, this period of inactivity appears to have passed and the sector is beginning to grow again with building projects such as the impressive SmartCity Malta technology park which is set to open in 2011 as well as a major renovation project at Tigne Point, an area of Sliema where a shopping complex and luxury apartments are being constructed.
