Upcoming road works and traffic changes announced in Cyprus

The Cyprus Department of Public Works and the Department of Forests have announced a series of road maintenance projects and traffic restrictions across various districts starting in early November 2026. These measures aim to upgrade infrastructure, improve road safety, and perform essential maintenance, with works impacting major motorways and urban roads.

Key projects include the construction of a third lane on Strovolos Avenue from November 2, 2026, to January 29, 2027, which will close the eastern sidewalk for 200 meters. Additionally, from November 2 to November 6, 2026, maintenance on the Paphos-Limassol motorway (A6) near Agia Varvara and Anarita will necessitate two-way traffic on a single side for a three-kilometer stretch between 08:00 and 16:00. Other ongoing works include irrigation projects on the Limassol-Paphos road, drain cleaning on the Limassol-Nicosia highway, and lane closures for horizontal marking. Furthermore, the Karvounas–Troodos Square road will face partial closures between 08:00 and 15:00 on weekdays from November 2 to November 27.

These interventions are part of a broader fiscal plan to expand road networks and enhance connectivity, including future plans to widen the Limassol motorway to six lanes. Drivers are advised to follow warning signage, as schedules may vary depending on local road conditions and ongoing maintenance requirements.
