In 2011, the Suva, Lami, Nasinu and Nausori Councils sought technical assistance from the Cities Development Initiative for Asia (CDIA) to help realize the councils’ shared vision for the Greater Suva Area (GSA) to become a “well serviced and economically vibrant” urban area. The ensuing CDIA study prepared a 5-Year Medium Term Infrastructure Investment Program (MTIIP) covering eight priority projects in four sectors, namely: urban transport, drainage and flood management, wastewater management and solid waste management.
