GEOTECHNICAL investi- gations are required for the ground beneath the Cittadella bastions to determine ground conditions under the medieval citadel following slope investi- gations last recorded in 2018. The Gozo Ministry's Cultural Heritage Directorate will carry out five-year ground investiga- tions focussing on the ground and slope beneath St Michael's Bastion, St. John's DemiBastion, the Gun Battery and the cover- tway, and measure the under- ground water movement in the area where a number of bulges were recorded. Data from the investigation will determine whether miti- gation measures are required. Investigations will involve drill- ing of several investigative bore- holes and in-situ tests and long- term monitoring. In the past months concrete blocks were placed by the cov- ertway in front of St John's Demi-Bastion to reinforce the entrance door's flank which suf- fered some structural damage due a heavy rainstorm. The sup- porting blocks will be removed as soon as the necessary consoli- dation works will be completed.
