Paphos did not have a motorway
link until 2001. It is now accessed through the A6
which connects Paphos with Limassol. It is expected that by
2013 the new A7
towards Polis will be completed so that the suburbs will get a
traffic breath.
Car hire is available on almost any town in Cyprus, but why
not pre book your car and have it waiting for you at the
airport. |
