The road with no name

Sunday, 18 September 2016, 09:09 Last update: about 11 years ago

One of the oldest roads in Safi that once connected Kirkop and Safi to Birzebbuga still has no name. There are two historical places on this road – the Roman Tower known as Tal-Gawhar and the garden of Sir Alexander Ball. I can’t understand why, after all these years the Safi Local Council and Transport Malta still refuse to give a name to this road, which once was known to everyone as Triq Bir-Zebbugia. Recently, a parallel road was named Sqaq Il Karwijja after two cars collided there.

I hope the Safi Local Council or a competent body will name this road without further delay.
