Finally the authorities are showing a little sensitivity to motorists' plight by trying to time works to cause as little disruption as possible. Hopefully this will be the rule, not the exception, from now on. Well done.

Timing is OK.
No school traffic and low industry traffic due to Santa Marija shutdowns.
Best time to fix normally congested main roads.

Well... timing is not that bad actually! Many people are abroad or on shut down; schools are closed; it will be closed from 10am (so by that time, most people will already be at their workplace) and it's only for 2 days not 2 weeks! We're always complaining about everything... just find an alternative route like I'm doing! At least the public was informed and given directions. Kif qatt m'ahna kuntenti b'xejn?!
