PN presents plans for mass rapid transport system linking the airport to Pembroke

The Nationalist Party today presented plans for the construction of an underground transport system linking the airport to Pembroke. The PN promised to build the first line in the next legislature, with eight stations being constructed concurrently while the underground tunnel is being bored through. The plan is to ease the road congestion, with the PN saying that traffic issues are costing the country €900 million each year. The PN is pledging to complete the first line within five years. Ten trains will be in use and the project – the first line – is estimated to cost €1.4 billion. Details of the plans were given in a press conference addressed by PN leader Alex Borg, finance spokesman Adrian Delia and architect Julian Borg. More soon
