Ministry of Transport announces new road projects and plans for Paphos road

On November 2, 2026, the Cypriot Ministry of Transport, Communications and Works announced two new road improvement projects in Limassol, with a combined estimated cost of €347,741 excluding VAT. These projects follow field visits by Minister Evi Tsolaki and include the reconstruction of Idomeneos Street in Agia Fyla—linking it to 1st April Avenue and Sfaktirias Street at a cost of €184,150—and the widening of the junction leading from Parekklisia towards Pyrgos. Both projects involve excavation, paving, sidewalk construction, and infrastructure for drainage and safety signage.

Bids for these projects are accepted until November 18, 2026, with construction scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2027 and each project expected to take three months to complete. These initiatives aim to address specific road safety and network issues identified in the regions.

Separately, Minister Tsolaki confirmed that the government plans to tender the major Polis Chrysochous – Paphos road project as a four-lane highway within 2027. The project will proceed in two phases, utilizing existing expropriations to avoid further delays in land acquisition. Coordination with public utility services is currently underway to accommodate the additional lanes in the design.
