traffic directions.
This study shall be presented on maximum 2No. sheets (not larger than A1).
Existing street plan/s at a scale which is not less than 1:500
Existing Plans are to be developed digitally on official base maps facilitated by Infrastructure Malta

Project Timelines
If selected, Local Councils and/or NGOs shall be given 4 weeks to discuss the proposal with the local community (resident, social and business).
Once this project is agreed to by the local community, detailed proposals shall be submitted to Infrastructure Malta and further developed by the agency for implementation throughout 2025.
Post-implementation, Local Councils shall maintain these projects on a regular basis and embark on further data analysis in order to monitor the success of the implementation of these proposals. In this regard on-site inspections may be carried out by officials from the Infrastructure Malta.
Assessment Criteria
Applications shall be assessed by an internal board within Infrastructure Malta as well as chosen external experts.
Assessment criteria shall comprise:
