Yesterday’s early morning trips from Mġarr to Ċirkewwa had to be cancelled after Gozo Channel’s MV Malita sustained a technical fault.

The company said the fault was repaired within an hour and the ferry was back in service immediately after.

The 6.30am and 7am trips were not performed as another vessel, the MV Gaudos, en-tered the service at 7am.

Gozo Channel said it took all the necessary measures by operating its third vessel and all vehicles stranded at Mġarr were loaded on the MV Ta’ Pinu and the MV Gaudos simultaneously.

All services have since returned to normal.
