Falling volumes of soil and stones on the road - Roads have become dangerous

Light snowfall occurs from time to time in Troodos, where dense fog and heavy rainfall prevail in some areas. Heavy rainfall occurs in the city and province of Limassol.

According to the police, the height of the snow in the snowmobile has risen to five centimeters. Due to the snowfall, the roads Troodos - Prodromou, Platron - Troodos and Karvouna - Troodos, are open only for vehicles with 4-wheel drive or equipped with anti-skid chains.

The rest of the roads, although open, are slippery and drivers are advised to be especially careful, as due to the fog, which prevails in several mountainous areas, visibility is reduced. Regarding the road network, a police statement states that due to falling volumes of soil and stones on the road, the road Paramaliou - Episkopi, has become dangerous.

The rains that occur from the day before yesterday in the city and the province of Limassol are continuous. In many cases they are very intense, but without causing any serious problems or damage so far. The competent services, however, remain on alert to deal with any problems.
