The planned dam construction project intended to supply water to the city of Nampula, Mozambique, is experiencing delays. The government has shifted its focus for the dam’s location from Melule to Macuje. While public consultations and environmental impact studies have commenced, the revised plans indicate a postponement of construction. Official projections do not currently specify a new start date for the dam’s building. This change in location aims to address potential challenges and optimize the project’s feasibility. The dam remains crucial for securing a reliable water supply for Nampula’s growing population. Further updates will be provided as the project progresses through its revised planning stages.
