Part of Larnaca-Paralimni motorway closed because of water accumulation

Police are urging drivers on the Larnaca-Paralimni motorway to be particularly careful because of the accumulation of large quantities of water as a result of heavy rains.

In an announcement on Wednesday evening, police said that a section of the motorway from the Sotira exit to the Xylophagou exit had closed in both directions.

Earlier police had warned of a large accumulation of water after the Liopetri exit, in the direction of Paralimni

The Met Office has issued a yellow alert warning of heavy rainfall.
