Pame Express Service in Nicosia Suspended from March 23

Cyprus Public Transport has announced the suspension of the Pame Express service in Nicosia from March 23.

The company's financial director, Tryfonas Chatzichristoforou, stated that the decision was due to a shortage of bus drivers. To fully execute the Pame Express routes, the company had to cancel other routes that were part of its contractual obligations.

Mr. Chatzichristoforou mentioned that the Ministry of Transport has been informed. Citizens will be able to use alternative routes, but with a longer duration.

From the Ministry's side, Andreas Nikiforou, Head of Public Passenger Transport, emphasized that a company cannot cancel routes stipulated in a contract with the state. He pointed out that it is the company's responsibility to find drivers and that there should have been consultation with the ministry before the suspension.
