Wara l-ħafna kummenti fuq ix-xandir soċjali ddeċidejt li nibda din il-petizzjoni kontra l-proġett tal-ftuħ ta' triq ġdida bejn Bieb is-Sultan (Ħaż-Żabbar) u l-kunvent tal-Kapuċċini (il-Kalkara).

Iktar ikkonvinċejt ruħi li din it-triq m' hiex siewja meta għamilt ftit kalkoli bil-QGIS u sibt li din it-triq mhux ser issolvi l-problema tal-konġestjoni tat-traffiku bħal ma' qed tissuġġerixxi Transport Malta.

Għalhekk, aħna hawnhekk qegħdin nitolbu lil Gvern ta' Malta sabiex iwaqqaf il-proġett propost tal-ftuħ ta’ triq ġdida bejn Bieb is-Sultan f’ Ħaż-Żabbar u  l-kunvent tal-Kapuċċini fil-Kalkara. Dan għaliex apparti li ser tiswielna €8 miljun, il-prezz f’ telf tar-raba’, l-ambjent u possibilment anke l-ħsara fuq is-swar, huwa prezz għoli wisq li wieħed irid iħallas biex wieħed forsi jiggwadanja ftit minuti meta jivvjaġġa bil-karozza.

After numerous comments on social media, I decided to start this petition against the project to open a new road between Bieb is-Sultan (Ħaż-Żabbar) and the Capuchin Convent (Kalkara).

I became more convinced that this road is not worthwhile after doing some calculations with QGIS and finding that it will not solve the traffic congestion problem as Transport Malta suggests. https://www.maltatoday.com.mt/news/national/134623/government_presents_revised_plan_for_road_linking_abbar_to_smart_city

Therefore, we are hereby requesting the Government of Malta to halt the proposed project to open a new road between Bieb is-Sultan in Ħaż-Żabbar and the Capuchin Convent in Kalkara. This is because, apart from costing us €8 million, the price in terms of loss of agricultural land, environmental damage, and potentially even harm to the fortifications is too high a price to pay for possibly saving a few minutes when traveling by car.
