Our Local Council has benefitted from funds of almost €170,000 for improvement works on Triq tal-Horob. The work was financed through EU and Government funds under the Rural Development Programme for Malta 2014-2020.

Parliament Secretary for Agriculture, Fisheries and Animal Rights Clint Camilleri visited the completed project.
