Extensive damage in the stormwater system of T’Alla u Ommu area has been discovered by Transport Malta.
The damage was discovered during maintenance works on the system, which the authority embarked upon days ago.
It said that its team discovered that a critical part of the system, buried beneath the road surface, had collapsed.
Transport Malta will install new pipes and rebuild parts of the system. The road will remain closed until February 4.
Vehicles should use Triq Burmarrad and the coast road.
