Works ongoing in a field between Triq Mdina, and the Mdina to Ta’Qali roundabout relate to the upgrading of an arterial road, and the improvement of the junction in the area, the Planning Authority said.
Concerned residents had contacted the Malta Independent, highlighting that works were ongoing in a field just off the arterial road, and that there was no planning application visible on the PA website.
This newsroom, as such, sent questions to the Planning Authority, who said that the works are being carried out by Transport Malta..
“The works are exempt from the requirement of permission in view of the provisions of the law (Class 3 of the 2016 Development Notification Order). Any land affected by the ongoing works will be re-instated to agricultural use,” the PA official stressed.
