Contract Signed For Famagusta Port Water Supply Project
A contract was signed after the conclusion of the tender held by the Famagusta ( Gazimağusa) Municipality for the Famagusta Port Water Supply Project, which was initiated to meet the water needs of the Famagusta Port.
An important step to meet the water needs in the port
The agreement, signed by Famagusta Mayor Süleyman Uluçay and Destebaşı Construction Officer Derya Dinçkuyucu, is considered an important step to meet the water needs in the port.
In his speech at the signing ceremony, Famagusta Mayor Süleyman Uluçay said, "Famagusta Port is the largest port in our country. This project, which was initiated to meet the water needs of the service buildings in the port and the ships receiving service from there, is very important. I would like to express my gratitude to the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources, the Prime Ministry and the Embassy of the Republic of Turkey for their support in this regard."
The need for water in Famagusta Port
The need for water in Famagusta Port, which has been provided by tankers for a long time, will have a permanent solution with this project. Previously, the tender for water supply was canceled at the contract stage and water supply could not be provided. However, within the framework of the cooperation protocol signed between the TRNC Ministry of Public Works and Transport and Famagusta Municipality on May 23, 2023, a new project was launched to supply water to the port.
Within the scope of the project, water supply will be provided by connecting meters to all public, military and commercial units in Famagusta Port, and water will be supplied to ships connected to the port dock. The water pipes to be used in the project will be provided by the TRNC Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
The project includes the laying of approximately 2,315 meters of pipes, hard ground excavations, 40 connections and the installation of special water supply points for ships. All works will be completed with asphalt and concrete covering works.
As a result of the tender, the necessary pipes and other materials will be provided by the administration to the contractor who will undertake the project. With the completion of the project, the water supply problems experienced in the port will be a thing of the past and a safer infrastructure will be created.
