For a number of years, here at Ta’ Giorni we have had a No. 42 bus which came from Birkirkara, picked us up, took us to Valletta and brought us back.
This service was convenient and efficient as it passed through Ta’ Giorni estate every 30 minutes. This service was extremely well patronised and presumably cost- efficient. Looking up the new Arriva maps and booklet it appears that no service whatsoever is going to be available at Ta’ Giorni.
So much for the vaunted coverage of all areas when Arriva takes over!
We were much better off before Arriva arrived!
