San Ġwann residents are today waiting for the planning authority’s decision on an application to build a megablock in a narrow road.

The proposed six-storey development in Zbibu Lane would have 50 apartments, 150 underground parking spaces and 70 garages.

Residents have sought the advice of emergency service workers, some of who claimed the development could make it difficult for them to access the area.

Locals described the plans as contributing to the “uglification of Malta”.
