Drivers are being urged to exercise caution when driving northbound through the Santa Venera tunnels because of what seems to be a collapsed water drain.
Photos of the gaping hole, which is situated on the outer lane, right next to the pavement at the exit of the tunnel (northbound lane/direction towards university), have been posted by drivers on the social media.
The hole seems to be at least half a metre in depth.
Markings have been spray painted around it, possibly indicating that it will be repaired.
Naturally, a little satire did not go amiss, with someone editing a ninja turtle in the hole, as if a scene from the popular 90s TV show.
