The Association of Owners of Paphos Leisure Centres (SIKAP) expresses its strong dissatisfaction with the delay observed in the upgrading works at the port of Kato Paphos.
On January 7, the bulldozers entered and any illegalities in the area began to be demolished, in order to upgrade the place, says the president of SIKAP, Angelos Onisiforou. The recreation centres gathered tables and chairs, closing for a certain period of time their businesses that expect to reopen around mid-February 2023 or at least on the last Sunday of the Carnival and Clean Monday, emphasizes:
"This period is considered the beginning of the new tourist season, which should be noted, has already begun, since several tourists are circulating in Paphos and flights to Paphos airport have increased.
The owners of the recreation centres of the port area, seeing the progress of the works, predict that the works will be completed around Easter and not a month after their start, based on a schedule and promises they had received. Such a development will destroy us economically."
The catering entrepreneurs, says their president, are deeply dissatisfied and concerned and are asking those responsible to speed up the procedures and adhere to the original timetables.
