Coral and marine life will soon have new homes in undersea housing to be created in the waters off the Southern Islands, in an ambitious effort to create the nation's largest artificial reef.
In the project by the National Parks Board (NParks) and JTC Corporation, 10m-high structures will be placed underwater at the Sisters' Islands Marine Park by the end of the year. They will be made from concrete and rocks recycled from JTC's other projects.
