I was wondering if the new road to Tatislu from Esentepe has been completed ?



The last time I drove it a few months ago there was a large section waiting to be asphalted just before and after you get into Tatlisu which wasn't open and you had to drive a fair distance on dirt road.



Thanks

Thanks Pipie



I was wondering since the article in the Cyprus mail last week that they were 1 km from Kaplica if they had finished the earlier sections. I guess they are waiting until the end to asphalt and open it, which given the money appears to have run out could be a long time away.



Its a pity given they have done most of the work.

The road is complete up to the junction with the road up the mountain into Tatlisu village. Its from Tatlisu to Kaplica that has not been done.

Mabe they will start again in the cooler weather , you can get to Kaplica but you have to drive on rough road which can damage tyres . Hope this helps .

When speaking to the Mucktar at Tatlisu , he seemed to think that work would commence on the new road October time , although there is some lorries/rollers /road machinary there at present so maybe it will commence sooner .

The situation here is just the same as it is with the Girne bypass

I have read that they have run out of money so work has been stopped.

no its not finished infact it aint any more advanced than the last time we were over in feb! like previous post its a lack of cash and with turkey slowly turning the tap on funding in the TRNC it might not get finished at all ! regards andrew
