Rehabilitation of the Mill Point on Arwad Island to Enhance Maritime Transport and Tourism

The General Authority for Land and Maritime Ports began today, Monday, the work of cleaning and rehabilitating the marine mill point, which is the main crossing to Arwad Island and plays a pivotal role in serving the ships docked around the island.

This step comes as part of a comprehensive developmental vision aimed at updating the maritime infrastructure and improving the services provided, reflecting an advanced civilized image that enhances the island's status as a tourist and strategic destination on the Syrian coast.

The project is expected to contribute to stimulating economic and tourism activity in the region by improving the readiness of the mill point and providing a more organized and safe environment for maritime transport, allowing for the reception of visitors and facilitating transportation to the island.

The project also emphasizes the authority's commitment to investing in maritime sites of symbolic and strategic value and restoring them to better than they were to serve as an effective launchpad for sustainable local development.
