Passing Through Msida Because Of Work? Here’s What You Need To Know

Jan 5 2025

Infrastructure Malta has announced temporary traffic changes starting Thursday, 2nd January, as part of the ongoing Msida Creek Project.

These changes are designed to facilitate infrastructure upgrades in the area, improving traffic flow in the long term while addressing immediate logistical needs.

What to Expect:

New Route from Valletta to Ta’ Xbiex:
Commuters traveling from Valletta towards Ta’ Xbiex will need to turn right near the Workers’ Monument instead of continuing towards the traffic lights. This diversion will lead to a newly opened road that offers direct access to Rue d’Argens.

Closure of Xatt Ta’ Xbiex Slip Road:
The slip road connecting Xatt Ta’ Xbiex to Msida Valley (opposite Johnsons) will be temporarily closed. As a result, vehicles accessing Msida Valley, Tal-Qroqq, or Ta’ Xbiex will only be able to proceed towards Valletta.

How to Avoid Delays:
Commuters are encouraged to use alternative routes like Kappara or Regional Road. Routes from Msida Valley to Tal-Qroqq, Sliema, and Valletta will remain unaffected.

Why These Changes Are Necessary:
Infrastructure Malta emphasizes that these changes are crucial for the progress of the Msida Creek Project, which aims to reduce congestion and enhance road infrastructure in one of Malta’s busiest areas. While some short-term disruptions are expected, these changes are designed to bring long-term improvements for both commuters and residents.
