More delays for Marbella port plans

Sheikh Al-Thani is involved with the La Bajadilla Port plans.

The Andalucian Public Ports Agency (APPA) has announced that it will demand plans for the enlargement of La Bajadilla Port in Marbella before the summer.

 

The project, which is due to be carried out by the company created by Qatari Sheikh Abdullah Bin Nasser Al-Thani, is now two and a half years behind schedule.

The contract was awarded to the Temporary Union of Businesses of which Marbella City Hall is also a shareholder.

The company reportedly asked engineering companies several months ago for offers for the project, but the APPA has not been informed of anything further, and will give the company until the summer to come up with the plans.

The APPA has already fined the company €50,000 and had initiated proceedings which could have led to them losing the contract.

The Mayor of Marbella, Angeles Muñoz, has said that she hopes that the plans will be received soon and that work will start this year.
