On Wednesday, June 30, the mayor of the city announced the start of a new large project, thanks to which the center of Limassol, in particular the medieval castle area and the Anexartisias shopping street, will no longer be flooded during the rains. The city will create a large 4 km drain.
According to the plan, they will collect rainwater and head it to the river, and from there to the sea.
The first drain will start from near Makariou Avenue, the second one - from Agias Filaxis Street, and the third one - from Vasilis Michaelides street, near the Pattihio Municipal Theater.
This is a very important project for the city. We are faced with a difficult task, as we will have to excavate 27 streets in the city center. Many of these are big roads with heavy traffic and high commercial activity. In addition, in view of the strict time constraints, the construction company that will deal with this project will have to comply with an extended schedule, and work until late at night and on weekends, - said Mayor of Limassol Nikos Nikolaidis.
It is expected that the implementation of the project will begin as soon as possible. Its implementation period will be 20 months, and the cost is about €7 million.
