Paphos Life

Bicycle ‘lanes’ in Limassol that climb up and down pavements have prompted ridicule online and anger at the municipality.

Mayor Nicos Nicolaides is reported to be ‘furious’ and has ordered an investigation into the project.

The project to create the cycle lanes in a neighbourhood south of Franklin Roosevelt was assigned by the municipality to a private contractor.

Photos posted on line showing ‘lanes’ painted in red on and off pavements have generated considerable humour.

But Limassol Municipality is not amused.

I shared it on my fb page this morning.
One of my colleagues who works in the IT dept at my old office in Limassol commented she and her husband live very close to this area and they saw it happening. They couldn't believe what they were watching was really taking place.
You couldn't make it up!

Or nuclear reactors ...

They got this bit correct, though a bit short

Got to be someone who hates cyclists, because I can see a few accidents on the horizon

If it was in the spring one would be tempted to think that it was an April fool stunt.... what a crazy waste of public money that cycle way project was! But then Paphos has its rusting white elephant walkway going nowhere...
