Malta’s National Transport Strategy 2050 and Transport Master Plan 2025

Malta’s National Transport Strategy 2050 and Transport Master Plan 2025 were just released. This master plan takes the shape of a hybrid national transportation plan and a sustainable national urban mobility plan, due to the country’s size and urbanisation level. Additionally, it establishes the structure for any future regional or municipal mobility plans that might be created.
The Transport Master Plan prioritises active mobility while considering public transportation, ferries, and freight transportation. Apart from commuters living there, Malta considers the mobility requirements of occasional users like visitors.
The plan is the first 10-year plan of an expected series of Transport Master Plans that will strive to achieve the goals established in the National Transport Strategy for 2050.
