Public event for the presentation of the project Wednesday 13 April 2022 Agora Shopping Centre (a' Municipal Market)

The Limassol Sewerage Board - Amathus invites the professionals and residents of the Limassol Centre and all interested citizens to a public presentation of the Limassol Centre Major Flooding Project, on Wednesday 13 April, at 5 pm, at the Agora Shopping Centre (First Municipal Market of Limassol).)

The Limassol City Centre Major Flooding Project, whose construction works have recently started, aims to protect from flooding the historic city centre and especially the area of the Medieval Castle and the area of Independence Street.

The project is worth 7 million Euros, has an implementation period of about twenty months and is funded by SALA and the Cyprus Government. The contractor of the project is the Construction Company ATLAS PANTOU.

This is a project with an extremely high degree of difficulty, as it involves the construction of an extensive network of culverts on 27 roads in the centre of Limassol, many of which are main commercial roads with increased traffic and commercial activity.

The event will be attended by the President of SALA, Mayor of Limassol Mr. Nicos Nicolaides, the President of LELA, Mr. Yannis Tsoulofta, and the Engineers and the Project Contractor, who will inform the affected businesses and residents of the Limassol city centre and the general public of the city about the Project and the planning of LELA to minimise any inconvenience to the public.

The informative presentations will be followed by a discussion and exchange of views with the stakeholders and citizens, aiming at a better coordination and a smoother completion of this difficult project.

The project is an important step in the planning for overall flood protection of our city and together with the other major projects that SALA has already rolled out, it will contribute substantially to the elimination of the flooding problem that has plagued the historic centre of Limassol for many centuries.
