Road users are requested to use alternative routes during this period. Residents can expect a level of noise pollution during this time.
'Much as we do not like the inconvenience of roadworks, we all actually love the feeling of driving on newly resurfaced roads. I wish to thank the road users for their patience while work is under way. The benefit of newly resurfaced roads include improved road safety conditions, better drive quality as well as decreased vehicle user costs,' said Councillor Rob Quintas, the City's Mayoral Committee Member for Urban Mobility.
