Our aim it to present the Budget proposal to the distinguished Kouklia Community Council members to achieve a better understanding of Aphrodite Hills needs and to improve communications and working relationship
Resurfacing of road from entrance to
roundabout, including making good around
manhole covers and side concrete edging
The budget for this road in the amount of
Euro 96,624 has already been estimated
and approved as part of 2021 additional
funding by PDO. The works are due to
commence in February-March 2022
1. Repair sewage manhole covers replace rubber rings
Estimated budget Euro 9,750
To prevent the possible collapse of manhole covers or
damage to vehicle or cycle tyres, urgent work is
required re-bed properly manhole cover surrounds and
level up the cover with the frame with new rubber rings
2. Repair Kerb stones
Estimated budget Euro 6,000
Lengths of kerb stone are badly damaged across the
Resort, associated with damage to the walkways and
block paving which needs to be replaced at the same
time
3. Make good bicycle/pedestrian slopes from paths to
road, even out steps for better baby pram and bicycle
movement
Estimated budget Euro 8,000
To reduce tripping hazards and therefore make
pathways safer for all users, the creation of
improved ramps is required
4. Make good interlock paving on footpaths
Estimated budget Euro 54,000
The major deterioration of the pedestrian paths on the
Resort is creating a major risk of a serious accident by
falling or bicycle accident
5. Replace broken manhole covers on footpaths
Estimated budget Euro 8,000
There are missing covers to the irrigation system
which leaves valves unprotected.
Also many damaged and missing covers on the
footpaths which are a danger to walkers and cyclists
6. Replace existing lighting on poles with LED
Estimated budget Euro 16,200
Existing lighting in the AH area is outdated and the
costs are very high. Need to replace with modern LED
lights to save on electricity costs and preserve
environment
7. Replace bulbs on the side road from main entrance
to roundabout and underpass
Estimated budget Euro 1,050
The entrance to one of the premium Resort on Cyprus
with International visitors is not as it should be with
missing and broken lighting. This does not give a good
first impression to visitors
8. Replace dead/ unwanted bushes on the planting
strip with new ones
Estimated budget Euro 20,000
Linked to the major problems with the irrigation system
which does not function everywhere, a large number of
bushes have died and need to be replaced
9. Replace dead/weak trees in planting strip along
roads
Estimated budget Euro 4,500
Linked to the major problems with the irrigation
system which does not function everywhere,
a large number of trees have died and need to be
replaced
10. Road Markings
Estimated budget Euro 15,000. Was presented in the
2021 budget proposal
The roads throughout AH area need proper markings.
The most dangerous area is through the ravine with
many sharp turns and blind spots, where several
near-miss accidents occur on a daily basis
11. Design and build Park with playground on Eastern
Plateau
Estimated budget Euro 70,000. Was presented in the
2021 budget proposal
Located at the Eastern Plateau, where hundreds of
people live or come for holidays. The area does not
have any amenities, it is currently destroyed and
children lack any place to play but either on the road
or the golf field, neither of which is good
12. Repair Nature Trail in the Ravine
Estimated budget Euro 10,000. Was presented in the
2021 budget proposal
The Nature Trail has not been looked after for several
years. It is in desperate need of cleaning and
improvement.
At present it represents significant health and fire
hazard.
(Possible cooperation with the Forestry Department)
13. Re-Install Benches along roads in specific places
Estimated budget Euro 2,000
Installation of benches, garbage bins and dog waste
bins has been a part of the AH improvement plan.
The works were carried out by a contractor with no
supervision and no clear thinking of what needed to
be done. Hence there is a need to make it right
14. Water connection north of Orpheus Villa to the
ravine road
Estimated budget Euro 6,000
Need to create a new loop thus giving an alternative
supply of water to the Eastern Plateau.
The loop will reduce the problems of reinstating
supply to the Eastern Plateau and also the number
of interruptions by being able to back feed water
supply to the Hotel area
15. Irrigation Controlers
Estimated budget Euro 5,000
The irrigation system is fundamental to the healthy
growth of the bushes and trees on the Resort.
Current system is almost entirely manual and
outdated. The failure of the system is resulting in the
expenditure to replace dead trees and bushes
• There are only 30 automatic switchers at A
• There are around 200 manual control switchers at AH
