Infrastructure Malta on Monday announced what it called a key milestone in the Msida Creek Project, as it entered into its second phase, as the first two steel structures that will form part of the new flyover have been successfully delivered to the site.
These structures will form the first span of 28 metres in length and weigh approximately 60 tonnes. The components were transported overnight from Ħal Far to Msida, with the support and coordination of Transport Malta, to minimise disruption and ensure a safe delivery process, the agency said.
"The commencement of the second phase marks the start of a series of deliveries over the coming weeks, during which additional steel structures will be brought to the site and welded together as part of the ongoing construction works," it continued.
As previously advised, certain routes in the Msida area were altered as of Saturday to accommodate these works. Infrastructure Malta thanked the public for their continued cooperation and reminds commuters to follow updated road signs and traffic directions.
The Msida Creek Project forms part of a wider initiative to improve safety and reduce congestion in one of Malta's busiest traffic junctions. We are committed to delivering this project efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality.
