Paralimni Town Square Project Starts Again

A big project to change Paralimni's main town square is starting again. This is good news for the town. The local government, Paralimni-Deryneia Municipality, has received an important permit. This permit allows them to build a new and modern centre for the town. The project will cost about €5 million. They are now looking for money from the government to begin building. The goal is to make the area look new and work better.

The project stopped for about three years. This happened because money from the European Union was not available. However, the new permit, which was given last Thursday, shows that work can now begin. The municipality wants to create a special place for everyone. It will be a central meeting point for people who live there and for visitors.

The new square will be a place for many different activities. There will be an area for events and a park for relaxing. There will also be places for monuments and many trees. A special water feature will be built. This will connect the square to a nearby lake and the sea. The design will make it easy for everyone to use the square. It can hold up to 3,500 people.

This town square project is part of a larger plan to improve Paralimni. The square costs €5 million. Another project will make the areas around the square better. This will cost €8 million. It will include making streets for walking and creating small public spaces. A new car park is also being built next to the Town Hall. This car park costs €6.7 million.

The Municipality of Paralimni said these projects are of a high standard. They will make life better for people and make the town more attractive for visitors. The design will also highlight the town's three old churches. This project will bring many good changes to Paralimni. It will improve the town's look and make life better for everyone.
