Limassol Municipality has implemented a large-scale programme to modernise the city’s infrastructure. The main priorities have been safety, street functionality and improving the quality of life for local residents.
The total contract value of projects implemented between July 2024 and June 2026 exceeded €21.5 million. A significant share of the funds was allocated to road repairs and pavement improvements.
Limassol roads: 108.9 km upgraded
More than €12 million was spent on modernising the road network. During 2025, approximately 10.1 km of roads in Limassol were repaired and reconstructed. In 2026, the programme expanded significantly, with works covering an additional 98.8 km of the road network. As a result, the total length of roads upgraded and reconstructed during the period reached 108.9 km.
The works included full resurfacing, maintenance and modernisation of both major roads and secondary streets. For comparison, the total length of Limassol’s municipal road network is around 500 km. This means that in just two years, the municipality upgraded approximately 20% of the city’s roads.
Upgraded pavements
More than €9.5 million was also allocated to the modernisation of pavements and public spaces. Between July 2024 and June 2026, around 81 km of new pavements were added across the city. As part of the programme, 156,330 m2 of paving slabs were laid and 81,160 linear metres of kerbstones were installed.
Particular attention is being paid to areas where the condition of pedestrian infrastructure directly affects residents’ safety and convenience. At the same time, the municipality is carrying out and planning targeted works in key parts of the city. These include local repairs and renewal of horizontal road markings, full restoration of paving on Anexartisias Street, as well as restoration of paving in the Mesa Geitonia area.
What will change for Limassol residents
The large-scale programme is aimed not only at improving the appearance of the streets, but above all at creating a safer, more accessible and convenient urban environment. Upgraded roads should improve comfort for motorists, while modernised pavements are expected to make getting around the city easier for pedestrians. For Limassol, where new residential and commercial areas are developing rapidly, infrastructure upgrades remain particularly important.
The municipality says the works will continue, with further interventions gradually modernising infrastructure across all areas of the city. As a result, Limassol aims to create an urban environment that is safe, sustainable and convenient for both drivers and pedestrians.
