The Cypriot Cabinet has approved the construction of the Limassol Mall in Agios Athanasios, with an estimated investment of €95 million. This decision was made on July 17, 2026, signaling a significant development in the retail landscape of Limassol. The approval comes amid concerns regarding the potential for increased traffic congestion in the area, especially as two competing shopping centre applications had been considered for locations in close proximity to one another.
Local authorities, business groups, and shop owners have expressed strong opposition to the project, arguing that it could exacerbate existing traffic issues in the region. Critics highlighted the decision as a disregard for community input and planning regulations, raising alarms about the implications of such a large retail establishment on local commerce and infrastructure.
Supporters of the project argue that it will bring economic opportunities to the area, potentially creating jobs and boosting the local economy. However, the Cabinet's decision to approve the planning derogation has sparked a significant backlash, as residents and stakeholders advocate for more comprehensive traffic studies and community consultations before moving forward with the development.
