Paphos - Polis Motorway Progress Report
Published 6th of April, 2023
Moving On
We are now looking towards Stroumpi from above the top end of Minthis Hills Golf Resort. In the centre of the picture you can see the main Site Office for the Motorway Project, but no sign of building work. This is because it is all happening down below...
A New Tunnel
Yes, they are in the process of building a tunnel under the Tsada - Kallepeia Road, and it is now beginning to take shape.
Work In Progress
I wonder if there will eventually be two tunnels, like there are on the Paphos - Limassol motorway?
Route Preparation
Beyond the tunnel they are clearing a path for the motorway.
Minthis Meanderings
This is the path the motorway takes towards Marathounta. You can see the little reservoir they have at Minthis Hills on the left.

The Paphos to Polis Motorway - Part 1
A new motorway is coming to Paphos. It will link the existing A6 motorway to the North West coast of the island, reduce travel time, and aid congestion on the B7. That's the plan, anyway. Alternatively, it will destroy precious natural areas and be an expensive waste of money. We decided to take a look at the proposed route for ourselves, so now at least you will know exactly where the motorway will go. Possibly.

Paphos-Polis Motorway Update
It's been a few months since they started building the new motorway between Paphos and Polis. In phase one, they are constructing the first half, which runs from Paphos to Stroumbi. The other day I went to a few vantage points along the route to see how they are getting on.
Paradise and Hell
A little while ago we showed you Martiri Bridge and the delightful gorge that ran underneath it. We recently returned to the area to see why the locals call it Paradise and Hell, and had some great fun off-roading through the beautiful scenery.Related Pages

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
