Missing bus shelter
The Ministry for Infrastructure, Transport and Communication (MITC) has booked advertising space in newspapers inviting readers to submit ideas on how to improve the public transport service.
If this initiative is taken seriously and with commitment, commuters would expect the ministry to embark on new projects.
May I remind the MITC about some unfinished business: the installation of a new bus shelter in Joseph M. Genuis Street, Vittoriosa. The Notification of Development Permit No. PA 06183/06 dates to October 9, 2006.
It is about time officials from the Transport Authority or MITC put their cards on the table and explain why the installation of this bus shelter has been postponed for two years.

Mater Dei, such a project not including a decent terminus! No public convenience at all! Let alone a decent bus stop! No Bus Terminus was considered in the original plans!! Well, the drivers are not human!! Why bother providing them with some facilities? Most Maltese people have been abroad, and certainly know what a decent terminus is all about. Why spend millions? We don't need more of the same senseless talking which we have been fed for years. Radical change!! We need to do that in our mentality first. I sincerely urge all those involved, let's learn to walk before we start running! Let’s start from somewhere. Please do realise that time is precious for all of us. We are suffering the lack of properly surfaced roads besides making a fool of ourselves as a Nation!
Good to see we have our priorities in order.
If it`s summer,escape the sun, hide under the tree whilst waiting for the hourly bus.
If it`s winter and raining just get wet for an hour.
You`ll dry before you get there! ta
