Significant Reduction in Serious Road Injuries in Cyprus

March 31, 2025

Cyprus has achieved a significant 43% reduction in serious road injuries from 2013 to 2023, compared to the EU average of 13%. The country also recorded the largest decline in light injuries during the same period. Despite this progress, the reduction in serious injuries falls short of the 50% target for 2020-2030. Cyprus has taken steps to improve the recording of serious injuries in line with the MAIS3+ classification since 2017.
