Improving Flood Protection in Nicosia
September 13, 2026
Nicosia is facing serious infrastructure issues due to floods, particularly following the severe weather in August. Authorities acknowledge that there is a need for improved flood protection. The EOA has taken over the management of drainage systems, which were previously fragmented. Maintenance of the networks has already begun, with preventive maintenance programs in place. Experts warn that such problems may become more frequent due to climate change.
