Work started this week on the €4 million Victoria-San Lawrenz road being financed partly by the European Union's Regional Development Fund.

The road, which is around 3.7 kilometres long, will be completely dug out and rebuilt to European standards.

The road is the main route that connects Victoria to the western villages of Ghasri, Gharb and San Lawrenz as well as tourist attractions including Dwejra, the Gordan lighthouse and the Ta' Dbiegi crafts village.

The works will include the total reconstruction and the upgrading of ancillary services along the route.

European Union funds are also being used in the upgrading of Mgarr Road and Xlendi Road. This project is being carried out under the European Union's Structural Funds Programme for Malta 2004-2006.
