April 6, 2026

The Dekeleia road in Larnaca has been under construction for four years with significant delays. The project was supposed to be completed by March 2025, but further extensions have been requested. This situation negatively impacts the local tourism sector, especially during a challenging time due to the crisis in the Middle East. The Larnaca Tourism Development Company is seeking intervention from the president to expedite the project's completion. The lack of updates regarding the completion causes insecurity among residents and business owners.
