Heavy Rains Affect Road Traffic

Heavy rainfall is occurring in Limassol and Paphos, affecting traffic on the road network. There is a flow and accumulation of water at points on the Limassol-Paphos highway, making the road surface slippery. Visibility is limited due to the rain. Snowfall is occurring in Troodos, resulting in a slippery road surface and limited visibility. The roads in the higher mountainous areas, from Troodos Square to the summit, as well as the Prodromou-Troodos road, are open only to 4x4 vehicles or vehicles with snow chains. The police advise drivers to be particularly careful, drive at low speed, maintain a safe distance, and have their headlights on. The conditions are difficult and require attention to avoid accidents. Drivers are asked to be informed about the condition of the roads before starting their journey and to avoid travel if it is not absolutely necessary. The safety of drivers and passengers is a priority.
