A house on Tseriou Avenue was blocked due to roadworks

Residents of a house on Tseriou Avenue in Nicosia discovered this morning that their access to the road had been completely cut off because of earthworks for a state construction project.

The only access to the house — a metal platform — was in fact blocked by large piles of soil. Excavators are working nearby, and large-scale earthworks are continuing.

According to a resident, the day before, someone in the house urgently needed to go to hospital. “If this had happened today, getting to a car or an ambulance would have been almost impossible,” she said. When asked why the soil had been dumped right in front of the entrance, the workers replied: “We have nowhere else to unload it.”

It is noted that the roadworks on Tseriou Avenue are not expected to be completed before November 2026, so local residents are expecting the authorities to find a solution that will ensure them safe and permanent access to the house.
