September 8, 2025

A new regulation on photo enforcement fines will reduce the penalty for jaywalking from €300 to €85. This amendment was proposed by MP Marinos Mousiouttas and has been approved by the relevant authorities. The pilot implementation of the regulation is expected to begin at the end of November 2025, with full implementation expected by the end of the first quarter of 2026. The changes will allow for technical testing and adjustments to the photo enforcement system. The aim is to ensure that the new regulations are functioning correctly.
