Drivers are being told to avoid Valletta as the traffic jam that has piled up around the ring-road is "tortuous".

Drivers wanting to leave the capital city after a day's work have found a long traffic jam both on the Marsamxett side and on the Lascaris side.

People are reporting that it has taken up 45 minutes and more to just reach Floriana, a trip that normally lasts less than five minutes.
