Heavy Rainfall Causes Problems in Several Areas: 'Lucky to Avoid Casualties'

The continuous rainfall of recent days has caused problems on the road network and infrastructure, despite the beneficial effects on nature, dams, and agriculture. A serious incident occurred on the Paphos – Polis Chrysochous road, near Tsada, with a rockslide. The rocks fell onto the road on Saturday night, disrupting traffic for several hours. Fortunately, there were no casualties or injuries, as the rocks weighed over three tons. The retaining wall in the area was also damaged. Community crews worked to clear the road and restore traffic.
