Maintenance work scheduled for Paphos-Limassol motorway tunnel
Starting November 9, 2026, maintenance works will be conducted in the Paphos-Limassol motorway tunnel. The project is scheduled for two distinct periods: from November 9 to November 13, and from November 16 to November 20, 2026. During these days, work will take place daily between 08:00 and 19:00.
During the first phase (November 9-13), the tunnel lane leading toward Limassol will be closed. During the second phase (November 16-20), the lane leading toward Paphos will be closed. Throughout these maintenance hours, traffic will be diverted into the opposite tunnel, which will operate with two-way flow to accommodate vehicles traveling in both directions. The tunnel will be reopened for normal traffic flow outside of the specified working hours.
Authorities have advised drivers to exercise caution while navigating the area during these periods. The maintenance is necessary for the upkeep of the tunnel's internal facilities and safety systems. Motorists are encouraged to stay alert to temporary signage and traffic control instructions set up to manage the diverted flow.
