Our View: If private company was in charge, Nicosians would have a pool by now

The Nicosia municipal swimming pool will be closed for the fifth consecutive summer season in 2024 due to the public sector’s inefficiency and lack of competence. The pool needed a major overhaul after 30 years, but the project has been delayed significantly. The pool was handed over to the Cyprus Sports Organisation for training purposes, leaving the public without an affordable swimming option for several years.

Nicosia municipal pool closed to public for fifth year

The Nicosia municipal swimming pool will not be open to the public until next year, marking a fifth consecutive year without access for residents. The pool has been closed for renovations worth €6.5 million, as the infrastructure was built in the 1980s and has not been seriously upgraded since then.
