A three-car collision in the St Venera tunnels caused significant traffic delays on Friday morning.

The accident occurred at around 10:30am in the direction of St Julian’s, involving a Mazda Demio, a Volkswagen Golf, and a Toyota Yaris Cross.

An ambulance was called to the scene to assist a 44-year-old man from Żabbar, who was in the Mazda Demio. It was not immediately clear whether he was driving or travelling as a passenger.
