Bahrain is set to build a new integrated medical city complex in the north of Muharraq governorate which will include a maternity hospital, a sclerosis therapy centre and an elderly-care facility, said a report.

The project was announced during a weekly cabinet meeting held under the chairmanship of HRH Prime Minister Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa.

Senior ministry officials updated the Prime Minister on the progress of development projects – such as Muharraq Central Market and the revamping of Muharraq Suq – aimed at enhancing the services delivered to citizens across Muharraq in various fields, said the BNA report.
