Two lanes of traffic snaking all the way to the Gozo ferry caused consternation on Friday afternoon after the gridlock meant an ambulance was unable to make its way through.
The ambulance got stuck in Marfa traffic leading to the Ċirkewwa quay just after 4.45pm. It was reportedly carrying a Gozitan patient.
A commuter told Times of Malta that there was complete chaos and no police officers or transport officials on site.
