'Rushed works at Sliema Ferries causing nightmare' - Michael Briguglio

Michael Briguglio, AD chairperson and Sliema local councillor has expressed concern for the ragtag manner in which the Sliema Ferries road works are being carried out.

"The rushed works being carried out by Transport Malta at Sliema Ferries are causing a nightmare to pedestrians. Crossing the road is very dangerous, signs are lacking, trees have been removed, and there are no signs of bicycle lanes. As Sliema local councillor I am particularly concerned for persons with disability, parents with pushchairs, children, the elderly and cyclists".

“Transport Malta has admitted that they are not attempting to solve the seawater flooding problem in the area. Saying that this issue is being dealt with in the upcoming underground car park project is not an adequate reply”

“Transport Malta should also give clear details as to which current roadworks are going to be removed and done yet again once the underground carpark project commences. As a local councillor I am disappointed that Transport Malta is not communicating and consulting in a proper way,” Briguglio said.

"Sliema requires holistic planning, something which apparently neither MEPA nor Transport Malta are capable of carrying out."
