The local council in Malta is urging Infrastructure Malta (IM) to reconsider its plans for a flyover at Msida Creek, instead advocating for alternative solutions that prioritize the health and wellbeing of residents. This move comes after years of consultations, discussions, and studies on the project, which was recently approved by the Planning Authority
The council’s call to action emphasizes the importance of putting residents’ needs first, focusing on enhancing their quality of life and promoting a healthier environment. By exploring alternative options, the council hopes to mitigate potential negative impacts on the community and ensure that the project benefits everyone.
Infrastructure Malta is set to submit revised plans to the Planning Authority, which may address some of the council’s concerns ¹. However, the council remains steadfast in its commitment to prioritizing residents’ health and wellbeing, seeking a more holistic approach to urban development.
As the debate unfolds, Malta’s residents are watching closely, eager to see how the situation develops. Will the council’s plea for alternative solutions be heard, or will the approved plans move forward? One thing is certain: the fate of Msida Creek and its surrounding community hangs in the balance.
