Meeting on the Implementation of the Paphos - Geroskipou Coastal Front Shielding Project

A meeting was held between the municipalities of Paphos and Yeroskipou and involved stakeholders regarding the progress of the coastal front shielding project in Paphos - Geroskipou. The meeting focused on the licensing of a small private marina and the placement of a breakwater in the area, as there is a possibility that the breakwater could affect the shielding project. The designers are called upon to consider moving the breakwaters so that there are no problems in the implementation of the project, while the construction of the breakwater will be undertaken by the private marina. The shielding project is considered mature and has secured funding, and is included in the list of proposed co-financed projects of the “THALIA 2021-2027” Program. There was some concern from the Municipality of Yeroskipou about potential delays, however, they were assured that the project can be carried out on time.
