The Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Public Works, Chris Bonett, has officially launched TM Roads, a digital platform designed to improve the coordination and transparency of administrative processes related to roadworks and infrastructure.
Previously, applying for infrastructure works involved a complex and bureaucratic process, often leading to poor coordination between the various entities involved.
TM Roads addresses these challenges by bringing all stakeholders together on a single platform, while also informing the public about upcoming works, permits, and related communication. This is expected to reduce disruptions and inconvenience for residents.
Developed in collaboration with the UK-based Transport Research Laboratory, the platform draws on international expertise and encourages a cultural shift in how mobility is approached and managed.
Minister Bonett described the initiative as a key part of the government’s wider Reshaping Our Mobility vision, highlighting the importance of moving from planning to real implementation.
He said the platform demonstrates the government’s commitment to providing practical solutions that meet public expectations.
Transport Malta CEO Kurt Farrugia added that TM Roads would enhance communication with the public, allowing individuals to register their interest and receive alerts about nearby roadworks, enabling better planning.
The platform aims to serve as a model of coordinated governance, reduce bureaucracy, and deliver more efficient services.
