Nicosia, Cyprus. The multi-storey Ledra–Ariadne car park in central Nicosia will be fully renovated following the signing of upgrade contracts, the municipality said on Thursday.
Project scope and capacity
The facility has seven levels, including two underground, a ground floor and three above-ground levels. It provides 158 parking spaces, including nine designed for people with disabilities.
Planned upgrades
The project includes extensive internal and technical upgrades, including a new lighting system, improved ventilation, a modern fire safety system and the installation of solar panels. A parking management system will be added, along with refurbished toilets, new flooring, interior painting and updated road markings.
Timeline and phased construction
The work will take 10 months and be carried out in three phases to minimise disruption. During each phase, three levels will close for construction while the others remain open. Towards the end of the project, the ground floor will close for about six weeks to complete final works.
Wider city centre plan
The municipality said the phased approach aims to keep the car park operational throughout the project and lessen public inconvenience. Officials said the upgrade is part of a broader plan to enhance the capital’s walled city area, including improving accessibility, functionality and appearance in the historic city centre.
