We were delighted to welcome the President of the Republic on Friday, 25 November 2022, at the Recycled Water Production Plant in West Limassol, one of the most important infrastructure projects implemented in our country during President Anastasiades' term of office, as well as at the construction site of the Great Flood Control Project of Greater Limassol.
Regarding the Recycled Water Production Plant, on 7 March 2020, the President of the Republic laid the foundation stone for this project. On that day we gave our promise to the President of the Republic that we will implement this important project with speed and efficiency. Therefore, today we feel very proud to have been able to assure the President of the Republic that we have implemented our promise to the full and that we are delivering to the service of our city a project of substance, a project that enhances the quality of life and the protection of the environment, and a project of which we feel particularly proud.
The total cost for the construction of the plant amounted to 30 million euros, while the cost of ten years of operation and maintenance is expected to amount to 13 million euros.
The total cost for the construction of the plant amounted to 30 million euros, while the cost of ten years of operation and maintenance is expected to amount to 13 million euros. The plant will serve the areas of Kato and Pano Polemidia, Zakaki, Agios Spyridon, and other areas in Greater Western Limassol, as well as the Limassol General Hospital, the New Limassol Port, the First Industrial Area of Limassol, and the major commercial developments of the City of Dreams Mediterranean casino and MyMall.
The President of the Republic also visited the construction site of the Major Flood Control Project of Greater Limassol, worth €16.2m, which is expected to be completed within 2023 and extends to all five municipalities within the boundaries of the SALA (Limassol, Kato Polemidion, Mesa Gitonia, Ayios Athanasios and Germasogeia).
Already a large part of the project has been completed and put into operation, thus providing from this year the necessary flood protection to areas affected by severe flooding phenomena, such as Ekali, the area of Tsirio Stadium, the area of Frederick University and other areas in Kato Polemidia and Germasogeia.
