Establishment of an Intelligent Transport System using Digital Twin technologies

Project

The reform aims at the establishment of an intelligent transport system (ITS) in urban areas and the Cyprus TEN-T network, using digital technologies. The objective of the reform is to enable better and more efficient monitoring of the infrastructure, to enhance it technologically and to introduce smart features to it. The reform provides for the delivery, installation, and connection of 300 traffic sensors, connected to the National Access Point. This equipment is expected to constitute the basis of the digitalisation of the physical mobility networks in a geographical information system (GIS) database and the integration of mobility services. As regards the purchase of the traffic sensors, the contract was signed in June 2024 and the installation of 150 sensors was completed in December 2024, whereas, the connection to the National Access Point of the traffic sensors was completed in May 2025. The installation of the final 150 sensors has commenced and it is expected to be completed by June 2026.

Also, a contract has been signed between the government and the Centre of Excellence of the University of Cyprus in June 2022, for the preparation of electronic tools, through which, the defects reporting tool “FixCyprus platform” has already been prepared.

FixCyprus is a platform that enables citizens to report issues they encounter on Cyprus' road network directly to the relevant authorities. This initiative, aims to enhance road safety, improve infrastructure maintenance, and foster active citizen engagement in the upkeep of public spaces.

All deliverables of the contract are expected to be submitted by July 2026.

The Recovery and Resilience Facility provides funding of EUR 4.0 million.
