Minister Chris Bonett Visits 1st Phase Of Msida Creek Project Works

Minister Chris Bonett Visits 1st Phase Of Msida Creek Project Works
Dec 12 2024 Share

Minister Chris Bonett recently visited the Msida Creek project’s first phase, which began a few weeks ago and is advancing swiftly. Project architects explained the works in detail to Minister Bonett and Infrastructure Malta CEO Steve Ellul.

The construction site has been secured with two-meter-high concrete panels, while a segregated pedestrian route has been established to ensure public safety around the area.

Preparatory works are currently underway, including the installation of 86 pilings that will support a new road linking Ta’ Xbiex Seafront with Pietà.

Sheet piles are also being installed to create a water channel, and the surrounding quay is being reinforced to enhance dredging capabilities.

In the coming days, part of the central strip on Mikiel Anton Vassalli Road will be removed to open two temporary lanes toward the Birkirkara Bypass, allowing for road wall repairs to begin.

Minister Bonett expressed his satisfaction, stating, “Today’s visit highlights our commitment to ensuring this project continues efficiently with minimal inconvenience.

The ongoing work is crucial to providing top-quality infrastructure that supports the continuous development of Msida and our country.”

He also commended the opening of a temporary parking area with 70 spaces on Clarence Street, which mitigates parking challenges caused by the works.

The next phase will involve excavation near the Workers’ Monument to prepare for a water channel aimed at preventing flooding.

A temporary road between the monument and the play area will also be constructed to facilitate access to Triq D’Argens. This adjustment is essential for the subsequent stage, which involves connecting Pietà Seafront to Mikiel Anton Vassalli Road.

Infrastructure Malta CEO Steve Ellul remarked, “Our dedicated team continues to make significant progress on this transformative project, and we remain committed to maintaining full transparency while delivering high-quality work for the Maltese people.”

Illustrator transforms Iconic Landmarks with a Playful Twist

Dec 12 2024 Share

Robin Yayla, an Istanbul-based illustrator, offers a fresh and playful take on iconic landmarks through his vibrant artwork. Known for transforming familiar scenes, Robin combines his love for travel with his passion for drawing, bringing a new perspective to well-known structures.

One of Robin’s standout pieces features Spiderman perched on London’s Tower Bridge. Another notable work reinterprets the Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, Azerbaijan, where the building’s sweeping curves are transformed into Marilyn Monroe’s famous white dress billowing in the wind. These illustrations not only reflect Robin’s artistic talent but also his ability to inject personality into architecture, making viewers look at these landmarks in a whole new light. 

By infusing his playful style into scenic landmarks, Robin encourages us to see the world through a more colourful lens. Whether he’s altering the shape of a building or adding a fictional character to a cityscape.
