EIA for the proposed Hulhule-Male’ Bridge Project<br />

planned one week for the relocation process, however any delays or damages during the<br />

relocation would delay the process further and can take up to 3-4 weeks. Furthermore, they will<br />

require a foreign specialist for relocating the marine network. Relocation work also need to<br />

consider season, as the earliest possible period to under take the relocation would be the<br />

beginning of 2016. It was also stressed that, in order to relocate the cables, Dhiraagu need to<br />

inform the suppliers well in advance, preferably 6 months, ahead of the relocation.<br />

Furthermore, the manhole, which is at the junction of the cables going into Male’ will be<br />

inaccessible after the construction of the bridge as it will be directly under the bridge.<br />

Officials of Dhiraagu also noted that they require advice from planning authorities on a possible<br />

location to relocation the cables and that the new location should be fixed and should not require<br />

frequent relocation so as to minimize frequent disruption of service.<br />

When asked about any advice or suggestions staff from Dhiraagu said that the best option is to<br />

consider an alternative location that does not requires moving the existing cables and manhole.<br />
