Nowhere is this more evident than in urban areas, where the combination of uneven surfaces, potholes, and severe congestion renders navigation a formidable challenge for both pedestrians and motorists. The crowded city streets, exacerbated by the influx of larger vehicles and public transportation, amplify the chaos, making it nearly impossible to traverse from one point to another without encountering the jarring impact of a hidden pothole.

The endeavour to revitalize Male’ City's roads is not merely a transient project but a continuous initiative transcending political administrations, owing to the perpetual nature of road maintenance challenges. From fractured tarmac to hazardous potholes, the myriad road issues impede the smooth flow of traffic and pose risks to both drivers and pedestrians alike. Dr Muizzu has emphasized the strategic importance of addressing this pressing concern, designating the Male’ City road development project as a top priority under the auspices of the USD 130 million grant aid from China. This concerted effort underscores a commitment to enhancing the livability and functionality of the Maldives' capital city, ensuring safer and more efficient mobility for its inhabitants.
