Traffic Congestion Persists at Agios Dometios Checkpoint Despite Infrastructure Improvements

Traffic congestion continues at the Agios Dometios checkpoint despite the completion of infrastructure expansion projects, according to the Turkish Cypriot newspaper “Kibris Postasi”. Delays are particularly severe during morning hours, as students and workers commuting to the free areas face queues extending to the next roundabout, with waiting times exceeding one hour. Many citizens have complained to the newspaper about the inconvenience they are experiencing, and the report is accompanied by photographic evidence documenting the congestion. This situation causes problems in the daily lives of those who use the checkpoint to travel between the two communities. The newspaper reports that despite efforts to improve infrastructure, traffic flow remains problematic, especially during peak hours. This is likely due to the large volume of vehicles traveling through the checkpoint daily. The Cyprus News Agency (CNA) reported the news, highlighting the continued inconvenience for users of the Agios Dometios checkpoint despite the recent improvements.
