A committee has been set up within the Mellieħa Local Council specifically to study and recommend measures aimed at eliminating traffic congestion in Triq Ġorġ Borg Olivier. The Committee’s work began in August 2019 with contacts with the competent authorities and as a result, is seeing that the problem is addressed from three different aspects, involving:
1.Road traffic management in streets adjoining the main roads;
2.More consistent law enforcement; and
3. Changes to certain bus routes, which currently run through Triq Ġorġ Borg Olivier, through diversion of the Bypass and Triq Qasam Barrani.
Discussions are ongoing and therefore nothing has been finalized yet. The Committee invites those who have any suggestions to make on these three aspects, by submitting them by the 31st July 2020, to the Local Council's Administrative Office at 126, Triq il-Mitħna l-Ġdida, Mellieħa MLĦ1107 or through e-mail address: mellieha.lc@gov.mt.
