Malta: Roadworks ordered to stop as dumping sites reach capacity

All roadworks have been ordered to halt after the weekend as the island has run out of space to dump debris.

In a notice sent to contractors on Friday, Infrastructure Malta chief executive Fredrick Azzopardi informed all contractors engaged with the agency that they will have to stop all works as of Monday morning.

The suspension order will remain in force until the Environment and Resources Authority makes the necessary provisions for the disposal of waste from demolition and excavation, Azzopardi’s notice states.
