PL leader Joseph Muscat this morning pledged that if elected to government PL will invest in the rehabilitation of the waterpolo pitch and develop it into a complex.

Dr Muscat explained how due to the structural condition of the pitch, part of the area had to be demolished in 2009 and was never reconstructed.

Adressing a press conference on site, the PL leader said that this project has been promised for the past 10 years and in 2011 the PN government had said that it will build waterpolo and football pitches in the locality, however the tenders for these were only issued in April 2012.

In another press conference held at the playing field off the Mriehel by-pass, the PL leader will realise the promise of many by erecting a footbridge or an underpass across the by-pass.

Following the tragic accident of two girls, the PL had proposed this plan through Parliament years ago however the plan was shot down as studies showed that only 42 people per week would use it.
