The St Julian’s Residents Association is sorely disappointed with the approval of the application for a car park, supermarket, shops and residences in St Julian’s, as the residential and commercial units will only serve to increase the traffic problems faced by residents.

This is ironic as the project started off as the building of a car park to alleviate the parking problem in the area and in the words of Mepa’s own deputy chairman Franco Montesin, the project will not alleviate the traffic problem in the area as the building of shops and a supermarket will generate more traffic.

Mega projects such as these only serve to make St Julian’s unbearable to live in. All the more so when they are built on the side of a valley.

Moreover, some objectors did not receive notification from Mepa regarding the hearing, which means they were not able to express their views at the public hearing.
