One of the major road projects carried out by the Council was the one in the new part of Triq il-Markiż Scicluna. This included the reconstruction of rainwater culverts, work on the pavements and resurfacing of the road.
The work lasted longer than anticipated due to drainage problems which started developing and which held up the resurfacing work for much longer than planned.
Later on the pavement in the old part of the same road was also changed; while the replacement of all street lighting by traditional decorative lamps as was done in Triq Santa Lucija is also planned.
… and resurfacing of Triq J. Howard in Birguma
Apart from Triq il-Markiż Scicluna, the Council carried out surfacing with tarmac in Triq J. Howard in Birguma, which had been awaiting this intervention for a number of years due to development taking place in it.
Xogħol estensiv fi Triq il-Markiż Scicluna…
Wieħed mill-proġetti kbar fit-toroq li wettaq il-Kunsill kien dak li sar fil-parti l-ġdida ta’ Triq il-Markiż Scicluna. Dan kien jinkludi r-rikostruzzjoni tal-kanali tal-ilma tax-xita, xogħlijiet ta’ bankini kif ukoll il-kisi mill-ġdid tat-triq.
Ix-xogħol kellu jdum aktar milli mistenni minħabba problemi tad-drenaġġ li bdew jiżviluppaw u li żammew il-kisi tat-triq lura aktar milli mistenni.
Aktar tard sar tibdil tal-bankina f’parti antika tal-istess triq filwaqt li huwa pproġettat tibdil tad-dawl kollu tat-triq għal fanali dekorattivi bi stil antik kif sar fi Triq Santa Luċija.
…u kisi mill-ġdid ta’ Triq J. Howard f’Birguma
Apparti Triq il-Markiż Scicluna l-Kunsill wettaq xogħol ta’ kisi bit-tarmak ta’ Triq J. Howard f’Birguma li kienet ilha tistenna dan l-intervent numru ta’ snin minħabba żvilupp li kien qiegħed isir fiha.
