The railing which starts from Triq il-Bjad and continues on to Triq Dun Anton Sciberras had long been in a bad state and indeed parts of the pillars were cracking. This could have had serious consequences especially as parts of it were situated on a flight of steps adjacent to a block of flats.
For this reason, designs were made, an application was sent to the Planning Authority and a call for tenders issued for the necessary work to start. This includes changing all the pillars, reinforcing parts of the pavement and the railing itself. In this way this part of Sgħajtar will be greatly embellished.
Proġett ta’ tisbiħ fis-Sgħajtar – Installazzjoni ta’ railings ġodda
Railing li jibda minn Triq il-Bjad u jibqa’ sejjer sa Triq Dun Anton Sciberras kien ilu fi stat ħażin u infatti kellu partijiet tal-pilastri li kienu qed jinqasmu. Dan seta’ kellu konsegwenzi koroh speċjalment għaliex partijiet minnu kienu jinsabu f’taraġ biswit waħda mill-blokki tal-flats.
Kien għalhekk li saru d-disinnji, saret l-applikazzjoni lill-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar u ħarġet is-sejħa għall-offerti biex seta’ jibda x-xogħol kollu meħtieġ. Dan jinkludi tibdil tal-pilastri kollha, rinfurzar ta’ partijiet tal-bankini u r-railing innifsu. B’dan il-mod se tingħata dehra ferm isbaħ lil din il-parti tas-Sgħajtar.
Sakemm qed ikun ippreparat dan l-artiklu x-xogħol jinsab fi stadju avvanzat.
