Akrotiri–Kolossi highway stays shut until Tuesday lunchtime
The highway stretch through the Sovereign Base Areas from Akrotiri to Kolossi will remain closed until Tuesday lunchtime as urgent repairs to underground infrastructure continue.
The section of highway running through the Sovereign Base Areas from Akrotiri to Kolossi will stay closed until lunchtime on Tuesday, the SBA authorities announced, as reported by Cyprus Mail.
The closure, which began at 7am on Monday, was originally meant to end on Monday evening. It has now been extended so that urgent repairs to underground infrastructure can be completed.
Drivers are advised to follow road signs and use the designated diversion routes until the road reopens.
What it means for residents
Anyone commuting between Akrotiri, Kolossi and the wider Limassol area should expect longer journeys and busier diversion routes through Tuesday morning.
- Plan extra time: allow additional travel time for school runs, work commutes and deliveries while the diversion is in place.
- Follow signs: use the marked diversion routes rather than attempting to access the closed stretch.
- Check before you leave: look for updates on Tuesday in case the reopening is pushed back again.
