Removal of Abandoned Vehicles
within the municipal boundaries of the Municipality of Eastern Pafos

The Municipality of Eastern Pafos announces that from 1 September 2024 it is launching a campaign to remove abandoned vehicles on public roads or in open public and private spaces, across all municipal districts, in accordance with Article 120 of the Municipalities Law of 2022.

The removal of abandoned vehicles is deemed necessary in order to restore the smooth functioning of the Municipality (freeing up parking spaces, pavements and public spaces in general), to embellish the neighbourhoods, to address sources of pollution, and to improve the image of our area.

The process of notifying the owners of these vehicles has already begun, with notices being affixed to the abandoned vehicles. Through these notices, owners are called upon to move their vehicles within a specific deadline. In the event of non-compliance, the Municipality will proceed to apply the provisions of the relevant law.
