Capital expenditure on roadworks in Gozo between September 1998 and March this year amounted to about Lm700,000, Gozo Minister Giovanna Debono said.

Speaking at the annual general meeting of the PN Club in Nadur, Ms Debono said that during the last few years some of the primary roads were not given the required attention and were showing signs of disrepair.

During this last year, works were started on the road that joins Ghasri to Zebbug, on Victoria Road, known as Ta` Xhajma and on part of the road that joins Victoria to Marsalforn.

The capital expenditure on these three principal roads amounted to Lm230,000, she said.

Work is expected to start on other roads in the coming months.
