Buses heading for Mater Dei Hospital will no longer stop at St Luke's because very few passengers have been using that stop, Transport Malta said today.

As a result, Mater Dei bus services will be around 15 minutes faster. Route 122 between Valletta and St. Luke’s hospital will have its frequency increased.

Bus route Route X1 at 6.45am will no longer go through Mellieħa centre, thus reducing the time it takes to reach Mater Dei hospital and University from Ċirkewwa. 

Routes X1 and X2 will serve Mater Dei hospital and the University. Passengers will no longer need to change buses at the University interchange.

Transport Malta said a new location for parked buses at the University interchange has been identified.  The current congestion that results in particular times will thus be reduced. 

The changes will come into force within weeks.
