TM insists removal of billboards is not politically motivated
Transport Malta officials today denied in court that Labour Party billboards were to be removed from the roads for reasons of political discrimination, and said they and other billboards were a safety hazard to drivers.
The Labour Party is asking the court to stop Transport Malta from removing its billboards. In its application, the PL said the billboards did not constitute a hazard and they were not placed on property belonging to Transport Malta. The party also claimed breach of freedom of expression.
In today's hearing, Brian Zahra, TM's senior manager, enforcement, said the decision to remove the billboards was taken higher up in the Authority. He said the billboards at issue were in Regional Road near the tunnels, another in Marsa near the Turkish cemetery; at Birkirkara Bypass and on the Coast Road. He said the billboards were illegal and constituted a hazard to drivers, especially the one in Marsa.
PL counsel Paul Lia, who appeared agitated, asked who had taken offence over these billboards. Was it the prime minister? This was political action and noting else.
Judge Anna Felice asked him to calm down.
Mr Zahra said his job was about enforcement and it was not his competence to decide whether a billboard was a health hazard.
Dr Lia said that according to a legal notice, the party did not need permission to place its billboards.
Party president Stefan Zrinzo Azzopardi said a billboard could be left on the same site for 28 days. The person who was engaged by the PL to erect the billboards was instructed not to place them on the roads or pavement but land which was beyond. He said the PL had the right to convey its message. He said the request for a warrant was being made because the party also had billboards removed in April.
Dr Zrinzo Azzopardi said enforcement only began when the PL set up its own billboards. Other billboards, including those which belonged to Transport Malta itself as well as product advertisements had not been previously removed. Therefore the PL followed suit.
Architect and road engineer Audrey Testaferrata de Noto, head of transport research and development at TM, said the billboards were a hazard and she had advised that they posed a risk. This applied to all billboards she said. The Marsa billboard was particularly hazardous because it was near a junction and a billboard could not be within 50m of a junction. She said that an illuminated billboard at a petrol station in Marsa was not a distraction as it was on a straight road.
Stanley Portelli, CEO of Transport Malta said he had issued instructions for the removal of all billboards which were viewed as posing a hazard. He did so after seeking advice.
Judge Anna Felice is expected to hand down a decision in the coming days.

I'm just waiting for the labour party to be in power and see if there would be just one pn billboard standing for more than 3 days ( exaggerated a bit here......1 day is more suitable). I remember and i'm not that old, that the PN could not even have the name properly written on their news paper....LET ALONE A BILLBOARD!! HAHA And that was democracy!

Please NOTE:
"She said that an illuminated billboard at a petrol station in Marsa was not a distraction as it was on a straight road."
I think that she do not pass from this road because the above mentioned billboard is less than 50 metres away from a round about and also near a curve to the left!!

That's what you get when you have politicians who will be in power for live. Having lost all credibility, they have decided that the problem was the people's access to information. We have less media freedom in this country than the darkest parts of Africa - and still the government think it needs to suppress freedom of expression further. We live in truly dangerous times.
Limit the terms in office to only two terms - be it PL or PN in power - tackle the source of the problem.

In my opinion all billboards should be removed and only billboards attached to buildings shall be allowed. Since the introduction of billboards the country started to look to shabby. There are two many billboards around and sometimes they ruin the picturesque views of the island. If I were prime minister for a day I would ban these eyesores from our beautiful island.

A far bigger hazard to drivers is the appalling state of many main roads.
Has any TM representative tried driving a small car down Testaferrata Street, past KFC and along the Strand - both carriageways are a disaster waiting to happen - then around Tower Road, particularly between the Preluna and the Chalet?

good one maria ... but.... removal of a hazardeous billboard is much less expensive than properly repairing a road. In the past, i had this bright idea to set up a business, selling billboard space and erecting one or two billboards around the island. the beurocracy won as there were so many restreictions with location and positioning that could not work for me. One of the restrictions was that you could not have any billboard on roundabouts..... today we see quite a few, hence, i'm happy that finally someone is doing something about it.

Of all the billboards scattered all over the Island, Transport Malta deemed fit to remove those of the PL. Perhaps GonziPN did not like the image of Dr. Gonzi with his eyes closed and his hands covering his ears, so synonymous with the way he has governed during the past 4 years. This government looks and works like a dictatorship.

Lawrence Camilleri
Jun 21st 2012, 17:44
I don't see how you don't see a billboard to be a hazard to driver, Mr Casha. A billboard is meant to attract the notice of a driver and if it is placed where it can distract his attention to oncoming traffic, yes that is a hazard. It is a hazard whether on public or private land. Do we want to have more road fatalities and then putting the blame on the state of the roads or sue Transport Malta for neglecting in its duties?
Anthony Grech
Jun 21st 2012, 18:06

Yes all billboards are a safety hazard, especially the illuminated ones and should all be removed PL, PN and the bikini ones as well. And coming to mind what about those dazzling spotlights affixed to some shop fronts facing straight towards the traffic,like the one in Ganu Street. It literally blinds you.

So billboards are a safety hazard to the driver. What about the potholes and damaged surface that's present in the road doing down from Naxxar main square to the Renault showroom? Isn't that a safety hazard? What about the road leading from Lija cementry to Renault showroom? The road, which is supposed to handle two lanes, has been reduced to one as the inner lane is badly damaged. If the maltese citizens living in the south of Malta think that they have been forgotten, try driving between Naxxar, Mosta and Lija and you'll be lucky if your car stereo remains attached to your dutchboard after the bumpy drive. Try going up the hill from Mosta to Naxxar and you'll end up with no shock absorbers. I'd be more than happy to list more roads if TM is interested in fixing them.

There have been so many billboards all over the island and in my opinion they are ALL a hazard. So do not just remove those of the PL BUT ALL OF THEM. I am not that naive that I shall believe what TM are saying.

This is a quote on the TOM online of 11th June:- "According to the law (L.N. 368 of 2004) no temporary billboards (even those of a political nature) may be placed on the road (a road includes a pavement/footway). Which means that the placing of temporary billboards on roads is prohibited (except political billboards during electoral/referendum campaigns). "

Mr Tabone what does the Law says if these bill boards are not placed on property belonging to Transport Malta, and so not on a road which includes a pavement/footway?.
Joe Tabone
Jun 21st 2012, 17:53
@ Guzi & Anthony
Billboards must have MEPA approval when they are placed by the road side, in a field; even on your own private roof. The MEPA application is also approved by TM, amongst other Govt. entities.
I think a planning application is only natural, i hope we are not suggesting that everyone along a main road may place a billboard in his front garden (because it's private property).

As a matter of curiosity I wonder what political allegiance this Audrey Testaferra do Noto has - purely out of curiosity of course. However, from a professional point of view, as she is head of transport research and development may I ask her whether she has ever carried out a comprehensive survey and research on ALL road hazards in Malta, like potholes, cart ruts, unfinished roads, moon crater developments etc. Or is it perhaps that she merely specialises in the placement positions of billboards. It's tantamount to a construction site health and safety manager ignoring all hazards and safety measures and then carrying out a survey to determine whether employees are wearing safety hats angled to the right or to the left. Ridiculous - yes, but that's Malta.

There were two other regimes before GonziPN that coud act in similar fashion.
