The Thilamalé Bridge, also known as the Malé-Thilafushi Bridge and more formally known as the Greater Malé Connectivity Project, is a road project currently under construction that aims to link the Maldivian capital Malé with the islands of Villingli, Gulhifalhu, and Thilafushi. This project has been said to be "the largest-ever infrastructure project in the Maldives." Once completed the total length of the project would be 6.74 km, of which 3.6 km would be bridges or viaducts over water.
