A 40-metre steel bridge has been laid across the disused Dock 1 in Cospicua, linking the promenades of Senglea and Vittoriosa.
The bridge marked the last phase of the Cottonera Waterfront rehabilitation project, which has seen the Dock 1 area, perhaps Malta's oldest industrial zone, turned into a recreational area.
The completion of the project is due to be officially marked on Wednesday.
Dock 1 was built in the early years of the British era in Malta while the warehouses and workshops on one side of it date back to the time of the knights.
The are, which used to be enclosed by a grey wall up to some years ago, now features green areas, fountains, street furniture and decorative lighting.
