The disused rubbish dump on the south coast of Malta is scheduled to become natural park. Works started in 2019 and are expected to be concluded by the end of this year. Processed construction waste and excavated earth are compacted to create a harmonious landscape to cover the millions of tonnes of waste that had been dumped in this landfill for decades. A rain-water harvest reservoir is being built to collect and reuse run-off rain water. Quality is essential for such large-scale landscaping works to avoid landslides among other potential issues.
