Mr. Ustel first visited the busiest roadblock, that of St. Dometios. They want to improve the "land border gates", Ustel said, which are the most important points to quickly revive the economy, they will make the necessary improvements as soon as possible in light of the information they receive during the visits. He also said that along with the improvement of transit conditions, they would also bring to the fore the issue of opening new roadblocks.
The Nicosia "police director" told Ustel that there are an average of 13,000 crossings every day from the Agios Dometios roadblock and likened the traffic from this point to that of the illegal Tympos airport.
According to T/C media reports, in statements made during his visit to the barricades in the Famagusta region, Unal Ustel said that they will make the crossing points so that those who pass through them will feel that they are entering the "state" of "tdvk."
During his visits to all six barricades, Mr. Ustel was accompanied by the "Minister of Labour", Hassan Tatsoi, "MPs" of the CEC from the "provinces" of Nicosia and Famagusta respectively, and "officials" from the "ministries of transport and foreign affairs", as well as local government and "police". The Famagusta "police director" said that one of the problems is that the control booths are on the opposite side from the driver's side and this delays crossings. He also said that an average of 1500 exits and entrances[/B] (per day) are made from the Deryneia barrier. In Strovilia, he continued, their problem is the lack of staff.
Unal Ustel stressed the importance for them of the transit point at Pergamos as it is the closest to Larnaca airport.
