Limassol has launched a €9.2 million project to replace around 100 kilometres of ageing water pipelines, to improve water quality, reduce leaks and lower maintenance costs.
Funded through the EU-co-financed THALIA 2021-2027 Cohesion Programme, the project will modernise the city’s water infrastructure and serve around 40,000 residents across central Limassol.

Two-Year Infrastructure Upgrade
Speaking at the launch ceremony, Limassol District Local Government Organisation (EOA) President Yiannis Tsouloftas said the investment represents an important step in upgrading essential public infrastructure.
“This project modernises and strengthens our water supply network. It will improve residents’ daily lives while supporting Limassol’s continued development,” he said.
Construction is expected to take 24 months, with completion scheduled for summer 2028.
Coverage Across Central Limassol
The new network will extend for approximately 100 kilometres, covering 220 streets across an area of about 2.6 square kilometres.
Works include the installation of new pipelines using modern materials, excavation and backfilling, as well as the restoration of roads and pavements once construction is complete.
The upgrade will cover the Enaerios area, Makarios III Avenue, the Garillis river corridor, the Tessera Fanaria neighbourhood, Pentadromos and Anexartisias Street before reaching the seafront.
