IN the following pages certain information has been got together relating Κto the Main Roads of Cyprus, the whole length of which as they exist to-day and are described hereinafter has been constructed daring the British Administration of the Country. Η The Retrospect, in the absence of any available records for the two previous years, commences with the year 1880 and has been brought down to the 31st March, 1901. It has been compiled from Blue Book Reports, froΘm Office Records and othei' similar sources. It consists in a series of abstracts of Reports framed by previous Heads of the Public Works Department, etc., aud constitutes a brief historical record of the progress of road making and of thosΟe enterprises which have led to the development of the country by the improvemenΙ t in the means of communication. So far as these records go they shew that upwardΛs of £195,000 has been spent upon Roads, Construction and Maintenance, during the 21 years under review, without reference to other Public Works of various kinds. During the two pre­ vious years considerable sums were spent upon Βsimilar enterprises and it is pro­ bable that the total amount approaches the ΙSUTI of £200,C00. Save for a very small percentage spent upon tools and other imported articles the whole of this sum has been spent within the Island andΒ has been distributed over all parts of it. There is no enterprise under the Hea d of Public Works which is of so great benefit to so large a number of persons—chiefly of the labouring classes, probably the most deserving of any—than that of road making. The demand in all parts of the Island is for " Roads " andΗ as the cry has been, and is, responded to with that generosity which is the first characteristic of a liberal Government, Cyprus is rapidly becoming one of the best roaded countries administered by the British Crown. Κ Following the Retrospect is a Schedule of the Public Roads open and in use on the Slst March, 1902Α. The total length is 628'8o miles, and the area of the Island being 3,584 squarΙe miles, the proportion of road mileage to square miles of country is as 1 : 5-7, nearly ; the length of these Roads is yearly increasing. A detailed statemenΡ t of the Roads follows. The Itinerary has only been compiled for those Roads which have been recently measured aud over whicli mile posts have been fixed. It is anticipated that this willΠ shortly be extended to all the Main Roads. OtheΥr information of a useful character is subjoined. Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ Ρ Π Υ Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ CONTENTS.

The Retrospect covering the years 1880 to 1900-1 was, as explained in the Introduction, compiled principally from Blue Book Reports and OfficΗe Records, etc., in Cyprus. These sources gave little or no information as to what Road Work was carried out between the date of Lord John Hay's assumption of the Government of Cyprus on the 12th July, 1878, pending Sir Garnet Wolseley's arrival, and the period at which the Blue Book Reports commenceΘ, namely, the year 1880. The veil which had hitherto obscured this period has since been lifted and the necessary information obtained from records preserved in the Colonial Office which have been kindly placed at the compiler's disposal. Ο From this source it may be ascertained in what stateΙ the Public Works, and more particularly the Roads, of the Island were found at, and immediately prior to 1878. Lord John Hay writing under date 20th JulyΛ, 1878, about a week after landing in Cyprus, states that " Roads hardly exist at all; there is only one road " that can be dignified by that name, and is the one which connects with " Nicosia ; its condition is as bad as possible. ΒThe rest are mere tracks, rarely " passable by bullock carts, and generally only fit for mules and camels." Sir Garnet Wolseley, on the 17th SeptemberΙ , 1878, in forwarding a report ou the Larnaca-Nicosia Road speaks of it as " the only road existing in the Island " when we arrived." The enclosure written by Lieut.-Col. Maquay, Commanding Royal Engineer, runs to the effect that " ΒThe Road is fairly laid out and has had "• a good amount of labour expended on it in its construction it is nowhere " metalled some parts are in deep soil which is almost impassable—for many " days in winter ; for four months in the year a coach takes many hours of the " day in getting over the distance of 25 miles." Indian Sappers and Miners Ηhad been employed on tliis Road at Larnaca, Goshi and Pyroi. '^ Several parts of the Road require making from the founda- " tion." "The cost of making a road which will allow of uninterrupted " communication during the winteΚr " was " estimated at £6,000 to make a per- '' manent highway, repair bridges, make culverts, etc." This sum was sanctioned and the work was carried out with the aid of the Bombay Sappers and MinerΑs whose labour constituted a valuable asset not included in the £6,000. Ι So much of the so-called road as existed prior to 1878 had been made during the four years ending 1871 by forced—and therefore unpaid—labour under an old Turkish Law wiiicΡh applied to the whole of the and by which all able-bodied men between the ages of 16 and 60 were compelled to give four days a year ou the construction and repair of roads. This contribution of labour was Uable to be increased to 6 days and " the carts and beasts of burden of the " people wereΠ liable to be employed on the roads without recompense." The only recorded instance of its operation in Cyprus was in the case of the Larnaca-Nicosia Road, lefore the British Occupation ; after that date it was never availed ofΥ, except in the case of the Water Works, when its operation Κ was advised by the Native Members of the Municipal Commission in 1879 but an Ordnance for which a precedent is taken from the case'of Zante during the BritisΗh Occupation of the Ionian Islands was passed to supercede the old Law imposing compulsory labour as requirements demanded; all labourers so employed were however paid Is. a day indiscriminately. Κ Its aid was first invoked during the construction of the Limassol- Military Road in order to expedite the work; it does not appear to have been operated again; probably the rise in wages under the new rule removeΗ d any necessity for so doing as it is recorded that in the case of the District whereas the price of labour had been, prior to 1878, 5cp. or 7^d. a day, it had risen in April 1879 to Sep. or lO^d.; in another case at Larnaca, it had been from 4 to Icp. for common labour and 15 to 17cp. for master masonΘs but had risen to lOc^. and 24 respectively. Sir Garnet Wolseley also wrote on the 12th August, 1878. " I am now paying labourers Is. 3d. to Is. 6d. a day." On the Limassol-Platres Military Road nothing less thaΟn Is. was paid. The Military Road from Goshi to Dali and MathiatΙi was one of the earliest enterprises and a sum of £3,700 6s. 2d. was spent upon it. The Limassol- Road was opened as far as Platres by the summer of 1879 and the expenditure recorded is as follows :— Λ Original estimate of cost - - - - - £6,000 Supplementary sanction ----- 3,000 „ charged to Island RevenuΙeΒ - - - 2,000 £11,000 In addition to which an item of expenditure is recorded for : Improving mule track from PlatresΒ to Troodos to admit the passage of carts . - - - . £1,200 Prior to 1880 there appear to have been the following sums also spent on, or in connection with, Roads, namely:— Widening the Pedias RiverΗ and constructing 2nd arch in Bridge near Nicosia ----- £350 Improving Entrance to Nicosia at the Gate, Roads to Government HousΚe and thence to the Larnaca Road, etc. ------£800 A vote of £1,000 appears to have been taken for the maintenance of the Limassol-Troodos MilitarΑy Road and another £2,000 for the maintenance of the Nicosia-Larnaca Road for the year 1879 and other evidences seem to justify the assumption that all thesΙ e amounts were spent. In justification of the expenditure upon widening the Pedias River Bridge which was estimated to cost £750 but apparently only £350 spent it is stated that in,the year Ρ1865 a flood broke through into Nicosia, submerged a great part of the City drowing many persons and animals. A great number of projects were put forward at this time, thus for instance :— DistricΠt Roads --.... £37,000 and again :— Rough detail of the Fair Weather Roads it is proposed to construct in the FinanciaΥl Year 1879-80* Κ Miles.

Λ Lieut.-Col. Maquay also proposed a road from Arsos, Omodhos, Kilani (here crossing the Military Road to Limassol) Ay. Mama, Pelendria, Heptagonia, and thence to the coast at Larnaca. Β There appear to be—definite records of an expenditure on Roads, and works immediately connected with them, during the Ιyears 1878 and 1879, of something over £26,000. In the preceding Introduction it was recorded that £195,000 had been spent between 1880 and 1900-1 and it was estimateΒd that during the first two years of the Occupation a sum sufficient to brin g up the total approaching to £200,000. It will be seen that this figure was a conservative estimate and it should have been £221,000 To this sum must be added £14,00Η 0 for the year 1901-2 and £19,509 for 1902-3 ; the total for the 25 years covered by the British Administration of the Country then comes to £254,509. This gives an average expenditure of well over £10,000 a year, almost all of which has gone into the pockets of the labouring classes. This forms a happy Κcontrast to the period before the British Occupation wheu the people were compelled to work on the Roads "without recompence" and when, as the Government Engineer wrote in 1879, there had been "no outlay incurred for very many yearΑs " on Pubhc Works. Whereas in 1878 therΙ e were no roads in Cyprus beyond that between Nicosia and Larnaca, over which a coach "took many hours of the'day," to accomplish the journey of 25 miles, after 25 years of industry there are over 1,000 miles. 16th July, 1903Ρ.

THE MAIN ROADS OF CYPRUS. Κ Η A KETROSPECT. Θ The systematic construction of roads in Cyprus for vehicular traffic dates, so far as recent times are concerned, from the British Occupation. There are indications of the existence of thoroughfares in ancient times in certain parts of Cyprus, notably in the Eastern plains and radiatingi from SalamisΟ , the capital of the Island about twenty centuries ago; but with that neglecΙ t of everything that was useful to the advancement of civilization which characterized the Dark Ages, they fell into disuetude and are now only discoverable by the presence of a few irregular lines of ruined walling or causeway whose presence leads to scarcely more than surmise of what their destiny actually wasΛ. When the Government of Cyprus was transferred to the British Crown there were no roads, properly so-called, in the whole IslandΒ, and the number of vehicles were few; and even in the early years of the British Administration the history of road making is more or less veiled in obscurityΙ . The maps which accompany this memorandum have been prepared partly from old copies, originally prepared by Βthe Government Etigineer, and partly from records and other documentary evidence. The earliest report of work done in this connection by the Public Work s Department appears to have been contained in Mr. S. Brown's (Government Engineer) Annual Report dated lst March, 1881. Η1880. A copy of the Map of Cyprus which accompanied that report is preserved, and from it diagram No. 1 of the accompanying series has beien prepared. A copy of the report has not unfortunatelΚ y been retained in the records of the Public Works Department, however, but the map shows the following. ROADS CONSTRUCTEΑD OR IMPROVED SINCE THE BRITISH OCCUPATION. Nicosia to Larnaca (followinΙ g the line of the present road). Larnaca to Famagusta, by way of Pyla and Avgoro (since partly abandoned). Nioosia to Famagusta, by way of Ornithi, Aphania, Ashia, , Kouklia, andΡ . Nicosia to Kyrenia, through Dicomo and St. Catherine's Pass. Kyrenia to , along the route, apparently, of the present carriage road. Nicosia to LefkaΠ, by way of Ay: Demetios, Akakia, , Petra and Kalo- Khorio (Chamli Keuy) (now partly abandoned). to Rizo-Carpas, by way of Exometokhi, Kuru Monastir, Marathovouno, Vi tsadaΥ, Psilatos, Lefkonico,* Gypsos, Tricomo, Kamaraes, Ay. Theodoros, TavroB, , Vathylakka, Elisis, Korovia and . Κ B Limassol to Pendakomo, along the route apparently of the present road. Η The Military roads then in existence are shown to be, that from Limassol to Troodos and from Goshi to Louroutjina, Dali, , Ay. Varvara and Matiati. Κ Mr. Brown at the same time indicated certain roads which he proposed should be carried out, viz :— Nicosia to Mari, by way of Nisso and Kophinou. Η Nicosia to Morphou, by way of Yerolakko and through the Morphou plain. Morphou to Karavostassi, with branch to Lefka, thence through Tillyria to Polls and Paphos (Ktima), through Krysokhou, Krito Terra, ArodhesΘ , Cathika, Chissonerga, Klorika and Emba. Limassol to Paphos. Larnaca to Mari, through Kyti, etc. to join the Nicosia-LimassoΟ l Road, Nicosia to Kythrea, and Ι Famagusta to Tricomo. All these lines of road are plotted on a copy of Kiepert's Map, a publication remarkable for its inaccuracy. Λ There is a good deal to be said for these proposals, and history shows that Mr. Brown was somewhat in advance of the timesΒ. The earliest Blue-Book published was thaΙt for the year 1880 and contains the following statement of expenditure. Nicosia-Peristerona Road ConstructioΒn - £178 1 11 unfinisheunfiil i d Peristerona-Lefka Road - „ 500 0 0 ,.

There appear to Αbe no details of the sum spent on " Maintenance and Improvements, £1,412Ι 1 7." 1881. The Blue-BooΡk report for 1881 contains the following statement of expen­ diture.

k Κ o Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ Ρ Π Υ Κ In :Mr. Brown's report No. B 730 of 15th March, 1882, it is stated thaΗt during the previous year, closing 31st December, 1881, a sum of £5,799 16 3 was spent on Roads and Bridges; but the writer points out the difficulty of comparing work done with money spent, inasmuch as the particulars of the formeΚr apply to the Calendar Year ending 31st December, 1881, and of the latter to the Financial Year ending 31st March, 1882. The works to which special reference is made in this report are as Ηfollows :— Nicosia-Larnaca Road, reported to be greatly improved, and the improvement of all gradients to the limit of 1 in 20 is contemplated. This intention was apparently never fulfilled as there are still gradients exceeding this limit on this road. Θ An interesting comparison is given of the rates paid for transport at this time. It is recorded that the rates of transport of Losusfc material from Larnaca to Vatili, between which points no Cart-road then existed, was 7c.p. per ton per mile as against 4c.p. by cart between Larnaca and Nicosia.Ο At this latter rate the transport between the two last-named places was in 188Ι 1 lis. 5c.p. per ton. In 1898 it was 7s. 4^c.p. but in the present year 1902 it is 5s. 5c.p. The other roads which received attention were :—Λ Tiie Nicosia-Kythrea Road—8 miles on which Earthwork and Side drains were chiefly done. Tlie Larnaca-Limassol Road—^the cutting of Side-ditcheΒ s nearly the whole length ^ A good Bridle road was undertaken betweeΙn Episcopi and Kouklia, a length of 23 miles, and a Cart-road thence to within 2| miles of Ktima. Also, 6 miles of roads were made around Nicosia by Convicts. In Mr. Brown's report dated SOth MaΒy of the same year (B 893) he makes various recommendations, and reports th e following progress :— Nicosia-Larnaca Road, 26 miles in good working order. Nicosia-Famagusta Road, 37 miles, most of the minor streams bridged and the worst parts metalled. Η Nicosia-Tricomo Road, 82 miles, (a) Nicosia-Kythrea 8 miles, all minor bridges and culverts built and half the length metalled ; (b) Kythrea to Lefkonico impracticable for wheels during the winter months; (c) Lefkonico to Tricomo in fairly good conditionΚ , requires little. Tricomo-Rizo Carpas Road, 39 miles, the Earthwork was constructed in 1880 but little else done. " The completion might be allowed to stand over."— Vide report. Α Nicosia-Peristerona-LefkΙa Road, 33^ miles, small bridges between Nicosia and Peristerona built but not beyond. Liirnaca-Famagusta Road, 26 miles. " Little need be done except draining and metalling the Ρheavier parts across the Livadhia Marshes."— Vide report. Larnaca-Limassol Road, 45 miles. (See CO. despatch No. 555 of 12 6/82, and Mr. Brown's report of 1st March, 1881). Much donΠe to improve this road. Metalled from Larnaca to South side of Embankment across the Salt Lake, 3 miles formed with side drains as far as Mazoto (13th mile.) From Mazoto to Zygi, 11 miles, formed, etc., for about half the distancΥe through cultivated lands. From Zygi to near Mari, 2^ miles, little has been done. From this point to Amathus, 2^ miles, Earthwcuks formed, portions Κ B 2 of side drain cut and certain bridges built. This section was almost impassablΗe for 2 or 3 miles near Pendacomo. Metalling of this portion now in progress. From Amathus to Limassol, little done towards formation of road, is very heavy for travelling in winter, and it is desirable this section should be reformeΚd and metalled. The cost of completing the Larnaca-Limassol Road was estimated as follows:— Earthwork and Side drains 26 miles _ _ - Η£1,560 MetaUiug 25 miles - ... - 1,625 Bridges ----.-- 1,000 Θ£4,185 Limassol-Ktima Road, 42 miles. During the previous summer (1881) the forma­ tion of the Mule Track from Episcopi to Kouklia proceeded and between Kouklia and Ktima the earthwork and cutting of side drains. Kyrenia-Lapithos Road, 8 miles. The track was cleareΟd and certain of the Bridges were in course of construction. Ι The roads around Nicosia then measured 9 miles. The following is a statement of roads constructed or improved since the British Occupation to the time of writing.

Mr. Brown made some important recommendations in the same report of which the following may be cited. The openinΠg of the Famagusta-Tricomo Road. The opening of the Pyla-Central Messaoria Road. The opening of the -Tricomo Road. ThΥe opening of the Nicosia-Lefka Eoad, by way of Yerolakko, Morphou anΚd Karavostassi. -' The opening of the Kyrenia-Lapithos-Vasilia to Myrtou and Morphou. The opening of the Nicosia-Dali and Dali-Kophino Roads. Η The improvement of the Mule Tiack from Lefkara to Tokni and Zygi. The improvement of the Mule Track from Lefkara to Kophino. Κ The conversion of the Kophiuo-Mazoto Mule Track into a Cart Road. The opening of a road from Nicosia to Deftera and Pera with extension to Paloeokhori and down the Yermasoyia Valley to Litnassol. Η The improvement of the track from Ticfka to Evrycliou, Kako Petria through the gap (i.e. at Karvouna) to join the Military Road at Doros with branches to Troodos on the one hand and to the Peristerona- path on the other. Θ The Pass alluded to, and now known as Karvouna, although Mr. Brown did not appear to know its name, is described as being the best across the Southern range, and this route as having been an important one formerly. The recent development of this route by the construction of the Eviychou-TroodoΟ s Road in 1900 and the -Karvouna Road in 1901 showΙs how history repeats itself. It was further recommended— That the tracks joining Omodhos and Kilani witΛh the Military Road should be improved and this Bridle Path, apparently between Kilani aud Omodhos, continued into the Kouklia Valley (more probably the Kostithes or Kha Potamos) to Kouklia in Paphos. Β That a good mule track be made betweenΙ Paphos, Krysokhou and Poll but Mr. Brown remarks that although in his Annual report of 1st March, 1881, he advised the improvement of the Polis-Lefka track he now considers that from Krysokhou to Pano Panayia and Mandria should be substituted. That a good cart road should be openeΒd between Limassol to Episcopi and he submits a Tabular Statement of his recommendations in the following form :— Cart Boad. Bridle Path. Total.

This is a most interesting forecast of the present Village Roads Laws, the first of which was passed in 1885. The document from which these extracts are taken is a most interestinΚg and exhaustive one. Other reports will be found in the Government Engineer's letters to the Chief Secretary No. B 926 and B 983. Η

In G 918 of 6th June of thΗe same year the following are the main features in Mr. Brown's " Report on works to 31st March, 1884." The last previous Annual Report was for the year ending 31st March, 1882. Mr. Brown appears to have Κbeen absent from the Island in 1883 and to have submitted no Annual Report for the year ending 31st March, 1883. The works executeΑd during this interval comprise— Construction of the Larnaca-Peristerona Road, 24 miles. The width adopted was 20 feet and the low-lyinΙ g parts had been metalled. The gradient at Pyla was altered from 1 in 8 to 1 in 16. The iron bridgΡe over the Pedias River near Mia Millia was built, the ironwork having been completed 26th September, 1883. The gradients on the Nicosia-Larnaca Road were said to have been improved from 1 in 10 and 1 in 13 to 1 in 20. The writer describes the condition of this roud as havinΠg been, in the winter of 1878 and, 79, the worst he had ever seen traversed by a public carriage, but when the report was written it was considered to compare with the best roads of and was capable of being maintained iu its theΥu condition at moderate cost. Κ In Mr. Brown's report No. B 730 of 15th March, 1882, it is stated that during the previous year, closing 3l8t December, 1881, a sum of £5,799 16Η 3 was spent on Roads and Bridges; but the writer points out the difficulty of comparing work done with money spent, inasmuch as the particulars of the former apply to the Calendar Year ending Slst December, 1881, and of the latterΚ to the Financial Year ending 31st March, 1882. The works to which special reference is made in this report are as follows :— • Nicosia-Larnaca Road, reported to be greatly improved, and the improvemenΗ t of all gradients to the limit of 1 in 20 is contemplated. This intention was apparently never fulfilled as there are still gradients exceeding this limit on this road. Θ An interesting comparison is given of the rates paid for transport at this time. It ia recorded that the rates of transport of Locust material from Larnaca to Vatili, between which points no Cart-road then existed, was 7c.p. per ton per mile as against 4c.p. by cart between Larnaca and NicosiaΟ. At this latter rate the transport between the two last-named places was in 1881—lis. 5c.p. per ton. In 1898 it was 7s. 4^c.p. but in the present year 1902 itΙ is 5s. 5c.p. The other roads which received attention were :— The Nicosia-Kythrea Road—8 miles on which EarthworΛ k and Side drains were chiefly done. The Larnaca-Limassol Road—the cutting of Side-ditches nearly the whole length. A good Bridle road was undertaken betweeΒn Episcopi and Kouklia, a length of 23 miles, and a Cart road thence to within Ι2^ miles of Ktima. Also, 6 miles of roads were made around Nicosia by Convicts. In Mr. Brown's report dated 30th MaΒy of the same year (B 898) he makes various reoommendations and reports the following progress :— Nicosia-Larnaca Road, 26 miles, in goo d working order. Nicosia-Famagusta Road, 37 miles, most of the minor streams bridged and the worst parts metalled. Nicosia-Tricomo Road, 32 miles,Η (a) Nicosia-Kythrea 8 miles, all minor bridges and culverts built and half the length metalled ; (b) Kythrea to Lefkonico impracticable for wheels during the winter months; (e) Lefkonioo to Tricomo in fairly good conditionΚ , requires little. Tricomo-Rizo-Oarpas Road, 39 miles, the Earthwork was constructed in 1880 but little else done. " The completion might be allowed to stand over."— Vide report. Α Nicosia-Peristerona-LefkΙa Road, 33^ miles, small bridges between Nicosia and Peristerona built but not beyond. Larnaca-Famagusta Road, 26 miles. " Little need be done except draining and metalling theΡ heavier parts across the Livadhia Marshes."— Vide report. Larnaca-Limassol Road, 45 miles. (See CO. despatch No. 555 of 12/5/82, and Mr. Brown's report of lst March, 1881). Much donΠe to improve this road. Metalled from Larnaca to South side of Embankment across the Salt Lake, 3 miles formed with side drains aa far as Mazoto (13th mile.) From Mazoto to Zygi, 11 miles, formed, etc., for about half the distance through cultivated lands. From Zygi to near Mari, 2^ miles, little has beenΥ done. From this point to Amathus, 2^ miles. Earthworks formed, portions Κ B 2 of side drain cut and certain bridges built. This section was almost impassablΗe for 2 or 3 miles near Pendacomo. Metalling of this portion now in progress. Form Amathus to Limassol, little done towards formation of road, is very heavy for travelling iu winter, and it is desirable this section should be reformed and metalled. Κ The cost of completing the Larnaca-Limassol Road was estimated as follows:— Earthwork and Side drains 26 miles - - - £1,560 Metalling 25 miles ----- Η1,625 Bridges ------1,000 £4,185 Limassol-Ktima Road, 42 miles. During the previous summer (1881Θ) the forma­ tion of the Mule Track from Episcopi to Kouklia proceeded and between Kouklia and Ktima the earthwork and cutting of side drains. Kyrenia-Lapithos Road, 8 miles. The track was cleareΟd and certain of the Bridges were in course of construction. The roads around Nicosia then measured 9 miles. Ι

Mr. Brown madΡe some important recommendations in the same report of which the following may be cited. The opening of the Famagusta-Tricomo Road. The openinΠg of the Pyla-Central Messaoria Road. The opening of the Frastion-Tricomo Road. The Υopening of the Nicosia-Lefka Road, by way of Yerolakko, Morphou and Karavostassi. Κ 18 A road 15 feet wide was made from 3^ miles south of Tricomo to Tricomo and thence for 30^ miles to Yialoussa, having a maximum gradient of 1 in 12Η. All heavy portions, 19 miles altogether, metalled, temporary crossings (Irish bridges) formed at stream crossings. This is the first mention in Annual Reports of Irish bridges and they were adopted in this case with a view to being replaceΚ d by culverts when funds were available. The Yialoussa-Rizo Carpas section, 14| miles, was only opened 10 feet wide on account of the paucity of traffic as well as owing to the commencemenΗt of the harvest which had brought Relief work to a close. This section was recorded as incomplete and needing metal. Larnaca-Kophinou Road,—earthwork done during the past winter 1887-1888. Length of road 15J miles and 15 feet wide. Θ Limassol Wine Roads,—Omodhos Road completed, the branch 4 miles long to Mallia and Arsos formed, maximum gradient 1 in 12, and ravine west of Mrillia spanned by a substantial bridge of two arches. Ο Total length of the Limassol Wine Roads now open 34^ miles, of this, 20 miles metalled, remaining length consists of compact dryΙ soil. Ktima-Polis Road,—a length of 4 miles added during the year and 8| miles now open. Λ Kelokethara Nahieh Road,—commenced in December, 1887 and 4| miles formed, the heavy portions metalled. It was deemed sufficient to make this road 10 feet wide with a maximum gradient of 1 in Β8.

The following roads werΚe maintained in good order :— Nicosia to Famagusta to Limassol to Kyrenia and to Kythrea, and from Larnaca to the Messaoria and to Limassol, besides several minor roads, or altogether about 250 miles had beeΑn repaired. A sum of £10 was granted by Government for supervision of free labour given by the villagers Ιof Karmi to improve the track to their village from the top of St. Katharine's Pa^s past ,St. Hilarion Castle. It is recorded that the people of Zoopygi had undertaken to improve the track leading to theiΡr village also. Mr. Brown warmly recommended that every encouragement be given to villagei-s making such offers. This waΠs the last annual report prepared by Mr. Brown. 1888-9.

CARRIAGE ROADS. Connection between Famagusta and Varoshia. Η Extension of the Nicosia-Nisou Road to a point somewhere about a mile or two beyond Korno. The opening of the Nicosia-Deftera Road nearly as far as LakatamiaΚ. The completion of the Ktima-Polis Road for a mile or two beyond Tsada. The Military Roads are shown to be the same as in previous years but it is open to doubt if the Mathiati Road was under maintenance at that periodΗ . The Bridle Roads appear to be as formerly with the addition of that between Nicosia and Ay. Epictetos by way of Voeno or Sykhari and Kako Skala to the west of Buffavento. Θ The " partially-made " roads appear to be the same, but it is open to doubt if they were still maintained, and in fact the absence of any reference to many of them in the returns of expenditure appearing in the Blue-Book would appear to indicate that they had been abandoned for some time. Ο In Mr. Brown's Annual Report dated G.E. 225 ofΙ 18th July, 1887, for the year ending 31st March, 1887, the following is recorded :— ROADS TO WINE VILLAGES COMPRISED IN THE LIMASSOΛ L ROADS LAW, 1885.

The cost of constructing these Wine Roads was about £200 per mile. Nicosia-Limassol Road,—7^ miles of Mule Track from Nisou beyond Korno converted into a carriage road, having a width of 15 feet. "There are 19 miles " of Carriage RoaΡd made from Nicosia to Korno and 19 miles from Limassol to " the Mari Bridge, but there still remains a gap of about 16 miles between these "two sections."— Vide report. Ktima-PoliΠs Road.—In January, 1887, relief works were started in Paphos with £600 for the inauguration of this undertaking. The daily rate of pay was 7c.p. * but this sum failed to attract a sufficient number of labourers to allow the wholΥe amouut to be spent before the close of the financial year and it is Κ recorded that £47 out of the £500 remained unspent. The length of road formed to 31st March was 4J miles but to the time of writing 7 miles were Η open from Ktima. " It is similar in character to the roads now known as " the Limassol Wine Roads and is 14 feet in width with a maximum gradient of "lin 12,"—FeV/e report. ^ Κ MAINTENANCE OF ROADS. The Nicosia-Larnaca Road, kept in good condition. " Nicosia-Famagusta Road, repaired and so improved that except abouΗt 3 or 4 miles at the Famagusta end it is a good Carriage Road throughout." The other roads maintained in fair working order were :— The Nicosia-Kyrenia Road. The Nicosia-Kythrea Road. Θ The Larnaca-Central Messaoria Ro^d. The Larnaca-Limassol Road. The Famagusta-Tricomo Road. Improvements were also carried out on several district roadΟs not specified. 1887-8.

Relief works appear to have been a feature of this year, and proceeded on a considerable scale in the Carpas, where over £3,50Α0 was spent, and to a lesser degree in the Larnaca and Paphos Districts. Ι Carpas Road.—In 1880 a road was traced from Tricomo to Rizo-Carpas via Leonarisso and Galinoporni, etc., but little was done beyond levelling the track and improving (?) some of the worst gradients. Little or no money was allowed for years for repairs Ρor improvements and it was therefore found necessary to reconstruct the road. The old trace through Galinoporni was abandoned owing to the heavy nature of the soil, and that through Yialoussa substituted, where the country was Πconsidered to have been more suitable for Road making. * It is assumed that this rate was the maximum. The maximum now, 1902, being paid is 5c.p. per diem, and no diflSeulty is experienced in obtaining abundance of labourers at this rate.Υ Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ Ρ CO Π CO Υ Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ Ρ Π Υ Κ 13 A road 15 feet wide undertaken as a Rehef Work was made from 3^ mileΗs south of Tricomo to Tricomo and thence for 30^ miles to Yaloussa, having a maximum gi-adient of 1 in 12.

This is the first mention in Annual Reports of Irish bridges and they were adopteΚd in this case with a view to being replaced by culverts when funds were available. The Yaloussa-Rizo Carpas section, 14| miles, was only opened 10 feet wide on account of the paucity of traffic as well as owing to the commencemenΗt of the harvest which had brought Relief work to a close.

Kophinou to Mari River Road,—Formation completed, length 9 miles, requires to be metalled. This opens a connection between Larnaca and Limassol, distance 44 miles. Η Ktima-Polis Road,—extended for another If miles bringing up the total length practicable for wheeled traffic to 11| miles. Kelokethara Nahieh Road,—2Κ | miles added, total length open 9^ miles. Nicosia-Peristerona-Morphou Road,—maintained and improved as far as Peristerona but more metaΑl required to make the road available at all seasons for wheeled traffic. Limassol Wine Roads,—^VasΙ a Road completed.

Also a number of minor roads not mentioned, making up a total of about 250 miles repaired, gradients improved and heavier portions metalled. The Lapithos-Nicosia Bridle Track was greatly improveΟd at a cost of £60. This track would appear to have crossed the mountains by Ιway of the pass above SiskUpos and to have proceeded through the villages of Plaesia and Photta. The Evrychou-Troodos bridle path was also repaired. The map No. IV. shows the condition of the roaΛd system at Slst March, 1890, and has been prepared from the Blue-Book report.

The annual report of the Officer in Charge P.W.DΒ . No. 87/91 of June, 1891, furnishes the following particulars of work done in connection with Roads for the year ending Slst March, 1891 :— Ι Kophinou-Mari River.—Earthwork completed 1889 -1890 and during the year under review the road was metalled, and certain bridges widened and repaired. This section is recorded as 9|- miles lonΒg and its completion provided a fair Carriage Road from Larnaca to Limassol , 44 miles, in all weathers. Ktima-Polis Road.—Extended and metalled for 1^ miles, the making about 12 miles practicable for wheeled traffic. Kelokethara Nahieh Road.—Extended and metalled for about 1^ miles, the total length now open for traffic beinΗg about 10| miles. Kophinou-Lefkara Road,—distance 6^ miles. Earthwork constructed and the road partially metalled. This Road was Constructed under the Limassol Roads Law, 1885 Κ Limassol Wine Roads,—the road to length 1^ miles constructed. The tabular statement attached to this report shows 16 miles formed and drained and 20^ metalled.

This diversion commenced from the Nicosia-Limassol Road near Ay. Paraskevi and rejoined the old road near Aglangia. This diversion is now classified among the ΑRoads around Nicosia as Section VI. New Cut to New Entrance Ay. Andoni Quarter, Nicosia. This was a con­ nection made between Ιthe newly opened Ay. Andoni Entrance and the New Entrance near the present Land Registry Office. It is now embodied in Section IV. the Circular ReaΡd of the Roads around Nicosia. Korno-Kophinou Road.—Earthwork and drainage for 4 miles completed leaving only 5 miles to connect with the Larnaca-Limassol Road at Kophinou. The length of driving road from Nicosia towards Limassol was at this time 23 miles. Π Kophinou-Lefkara Road.—2i miles of the length opened in the previous year wereΥ metalled and this road completed. Κ 19 Limassol Wine Roads.—^A branch road of 2J miles constructed to the villi^e of Pakhna half the cost being defrayed by the village interested. Η Ktima-Polis Road,—was extended 1^ miles and a total length of 14f miles thus rendered practicable for wheeled traffic. Κ Kelokethara Nahieh Road.—1^ miles added and a total length of 11| miles opened. The summary shows 17| miles of road formed and drained and 22| metalled. The roads maintained were as follows :— Η Nicosia-Larnaca Road ..... 26 miks Limassol Wine Roads ..... Nicosia-Famagusta Road .....

Certain torrents required to beΗ bridged to make the road available at all times. Kat j-Lefkara Road.—^A branch of 1J miles was made to connect this village with the Kophinou-Lefkara Road. Khirokhitia-Ora Road,—formation for 2^ miles completed Θleaving 9| miles to be done. This and the foregoing Road were constructed under the Limassol Roads Law, 1885, Ktima-Polis Road.—Extended for 3| miles making a Οtotal length open to traffic of 18 miles, now within 1 mile of Simou. Kelokethara Nahieh Road, was extended for about 2Ιi miles making a total length of 14^ miles open, now within ^ mile of the village of Kelokethara. The summary shows 24^ miles of roadway formed and 22 miles, including portions of roads previously opened, metalled, but thiΛs does not imply that the whole 24^ miles were new roads as certain lengths of previously opened roads were also reformed as well as metalled. The roads maintained were the same as thosΒe of the previous year with the addition of the Kophinou-Lefkara and the PaphoΙ s District Roads, altogether 330 miles are said to have been maintained but I find no reference to the Famagusta- Tricomo Road which although it was shown to be a Carriage Road in 1887 does not appear to have received much, if any, attention in respect of maintenance since that year. Β The satae document records the receip t of a portion of the iron work for the Pyroi bridge, also the construction of a timber bridge over the or Sisklipou river on the Nicosia-Limassol Road and of the Kief tis bridge, Messaoria.

Half the cost of the work was bornΘe by the villages interested. Kato-Lefkara Branch Road was completed. Limassol-Paphos New Road.—2^ miles completed anΟd metalled.

Famagusta-Tricomo Road.—Earthwork and drainage for a distance of 5| miles Υcompleted during the year. Κ 22 It is, necessary to remark here that this road was shewn as a Carriage Road in the map accompanying Mr. Brown's Annual Report of 1887, of which No. III. of Η this series is a copy. It appears to have been under maintenance from time to time in the years between 1887 and 1894, but in this latter year it seems,to have become necessary to reconstruct it; doubtless owing to the paucity of the amountΚs allowed for maintenance. The only other road which appears to have been under construction during the year 1894-1895 was the— Η Limassol-Paphos New Road,—to which 2J miles were added.

Ι It is also recorded that about 3 miles of the mountain road between Kythrea, Khartza and Ay. Ambrosios were improved, the Government supplying super­ vision and tools andΡ the village interested the labour. Amongst others it is recorded that the timber bridge over the Orta Keuy Der6 or Medias near the village of Orta Keuy was constructed. It is also recorded that a stone breaking machine worked by manual po«er was imported anΠd employed on the Nicosia-Larnaca Road and its use resulted in a saving of 25 % on the cost of breaking metal as compared with that broken by hand.

Kythrea-Tricomo Road with the exception of 7 miles which had been con­ structed during the year undeΚr review. Peristerona (or Astromeriti) to Lefka via Elaea. There were a number of extraordinary works done on several of the roads the cost of which was includeΑd in the sums spent upon or classified as maintenance. The expenditure on existing roads was £5,184 9 2 including £293 0 8 contributed by the AgriculturaΙ l Bank, the cost of maintenance being therefore £11 17 5 per mile. The expenditure on new roads was £2,852 4 6 including £81 17 0 contributed by the AgriculturaΡl Bank, the cost of construction being therefore £137 9 1 per mile. There was however no established system which governed either the maintenance oΠr the construction of roads, and there is no reason to believe that the work done in connection with the former was anything more than superficial repairs, instance the fact that no consolidation was effected in the case of newly spread metalΥ. Κ 28 This was the first year during which the Limassol-Troodos Road was maintained by the Island Government under agreement with the War DepaitmenΗt by which the latter undertook to contribute the sum of £233 6 6 annually towards its maintenance. The roads constructed consisted of :— Κ The Nicosia-Deftera Road 3 miles formed and metalled. The Kato-Drys Road,—2^ miles formed and 1 mile metalled. Η The Khirokhitea-Ora Road.—Two miles metalled. The Garyllis Bridge Approaches, Limassol. Peristerona-Pygi-Lefkonico Road,—4 miles formed and metalled and the extension of the Larnaca-Central Messaoria Road to Lefkonico thuΘs completed. Achelia-Jelojara,—completion of ^ mile of road at the Jolojara end. The more important bridges built were the Akachia and the Peristerona bridges on the Nicosia-Morphou Road and the Nisou bridgΟe the Xeropotamos Bridge Paphos completed, all having been commenced in Ιthe previous year. The improvement of the Erimi Bridge on the Limassol-Paphos Road was also carried out. 1898-9.

Nicosia-Deftera Road,—3 miles constructed without bridges as far as the neighbourhood of Anayia beyond Deftera. Η Morphou-Karavostassi Road,—7 miles constructed fromiMorphou but without bridges. Astromeriti-Lefka Road,—6 miles formed, but not metalled Θand no bridges built, between Astromeriti and Koutrapha Circular Road, Nicosia,—a length of 175 miles between the Paphos, Kyrenia and Famagusta Gates thus completing with existing roads the circuit of the Town of Nicosia. It was only metalled for that part of its lengthΟ between the Paphos Gate and the Slaughter House the rest of the road was noΙt so treated. A considerable number of bridges were buUt and the Giaz Bridge (Timber) the largest of them was commenced. Λ The Mileage roads open on Slst March, 1898 was 457*25 and on the Slst March, 1899, 497*25, showing 40 miles increase during the year, of which 56*75 miles were maintained out of Agricultural BankΒ Funds. During the year the " Roads around Nicosia" had been remeasured and it was found that their total length was 9'25 mileΙs as against 3 miles recorded, so that the actual length of roads added was 33-75 miles as against 40 shewn in the foregoing statement. Β The expenditure on the maintenanc e of these roads was— £5,270 12 7 from Public Works Funds. 315 14 2 from Agricultural Bank Funds. 233 6Η 6 from War Department Funds. Total - £5,819 13 6 Cost per mile - £1Κ2 11 0 A sum of £3,161 10 1 (including £383 14 6 spent on Village Roads) was spent on New Roads. Α The cost of construction was £82 1 8 per mile, most of the new roads not having been metalled. Ι This report records the introduction during the year under review of a New System governingΡ the Maiutenance and Construction of Main Roads, aud the improvement in condition of the roads resulting therefrom, due jis much as anything to the importation of 23 Road Rollers, drawn by a pair of animals, and weighing 15 cwt. each. They were paid for out of the Road Maintenance vote and their costΠ is not included in the rate per mile as shewn above. Previous to this date the total number of Road Rollers in the Island was four, of which two were imported articles and the others of local manufacture from the shafts of antique columnsΥ . Κ 30 At the close of the year under review the length of roads to area of country stood in the proportion of 1 mile of road to 7|- square miles of area. Η Allusion is made to the efforts inaugurated to arrest the progress of the Sand Drifts which for years past had seriously impeded traffic on the Kophinou- Limassol Road a little to the east of the latter town, and during the winteΚr of 1898-1899 the first batch of trees was planted by the Public Works Department at the Western end of the Drifts.

Κ 31 It is recorded that the condition of the roads have shewn general improve­ ment throughout the Island under the New System inauguiated during the yearΗ ending Slst March, 1899, and cites the Nicosia-Larnaca Road as au instance of such improvement. The frequency of offences under the Roads Protection Law of 1885 anΚd the general disregard of the requirements of the Law are alluded to, but vigorous action by the Public Works Department aided by the Police had brought about satisfactory results. Η The Plantation of the Sand Dunes near Limassol made good progress but the Acacias were the only trees which throve, the other bushes, Shigna etc., which were planted on the advice of the Principal Forest Officer having proved a failure. The improvements carried out to the roads and paid for from Θthe maintenance votes consisted mainly in the elimination of a number of Irish Bridges and their substitution by Cement Concrete Pipes made in the local Prisons, the manufacture of which was introduced in 1898. The length of main roads open on the Slst March, 189Ο9 was 497*25 „ „ „ 190Ι 0 „ 534-75 Increase during the year 37-50 The actual expenditure out of Public Works FundΛs ou the maintenance of 438'72 miles of road was £5,726 14 8 of which sum the War Department contributed £283 6 6 towards the maintenance of the Limassol-Troodos Road. In addition to whicli 56-75 miles were maintained under the Limassol Roads Law from Agricultural Bank Funds at a cost of J6440Β 5 5 making a cost of £6,166 0 4 at the rate of about £12 5 0 per mile.

Morphou-Karavostassi Road completed as to formation throughout, is only metalled as far as Ghaziveram, certain parts are very muddy in wet weather and bridges have noΡt been built. Astromeriti-Lefka.—The section between Koutrapha and Angoulemi was formed and the essential bridges built. K. Koutrapha-Brrychou-TroodoΠ s Road,—formed to a point a little above Evrychou. Deftera-Aradiou (Nicosia-Paloekhori) Road,—formed for another 4i miles but no-metallinΥ g was supplied. Κ 33 Orta-Keuj-Aghirda Road.—In reality a diversion of the Nicosia-KyreniΗa Road between the 1J and 10| miles, avoiding the bad line of the " Hummocks " encountered vui Dicomo. The formation was carried out from the Nicosia end to a point about a mile beyond Geunyeli. Karavostassi-Kambos Road.—A commencement was made on this roaΚd and the line opened in various places, by the cutting of the preliminary berm on the gradients of a Third Class Road. The Villagers and the Monastery of Kykko contributed largely with free labour towards this work, the sum granteΗ d by Government being spent on supervision, tools and blasting materials. Kyrenia-Lapithos Road.—The section between and Lapithos was completed and metalled. Θ Kyrenia-Ay. Epictetos Road, formed throughout mainly by free labour from the village of Ay. Epictetos. Nicosia-Kyrenia Road, underwent improvements at five places between Aghirda Police Station and the Bougazi Mylos where theΟ gradients of 1 in 5*6, I in 7, 1 in 11, etc., were substituted by those of 1 in Ι15. There still remain parts of this road where the gradients are unreasonably steep. Nicosia-Varoshia Road, was also improved near the village of Kalopsyda and at the descent into the Vrysoudhi Valley whereΛ gradients of 1 in 8 and 1 in II were replaced by those of 1 in 15. Limassol Main Road to Zygi,—This was the re-opening of a section of the Old Larnaca-Zygi-Mari Road between Mari Bridge and Zygi. The formation of the whole length was carried out but not metalledΒ. Platres-Prodromos Road.—A commencemenΙ t was made upon this important road by lockspitting the trace which leaves the Limassol-Troodos Road a little below Pano-Platres near the 30th mile post from Limassol and terminates at Prodromes. At the end of the year abouΒt three parts of a mile of road had been raade by free labour from the village of Prodromes. Among the bridge work carried out during the year, of which full details appear in the document under reference, the most important was the— Giaz Bridge, commenced durinΗg the previous financial year and completed during that under review.

The aggregate number of paid labourers employed during the year was 268,867 : an average of 859 per diem as against 773 during the previous year. This increase Ρwas due in a measure to Relief Works in the Carpas rendered necessary by the deficient harvest of 1901. A sum of £14,718 5 0 was paid in all in wages to labourers being at the rate of £17 2 6 peΠr head per annum as against £13,793 7 3 and £17 16 8 res­ pectively for the previous year. The supervision of paid labourers cost £1,108 14 5 at the rate of £1 5 7 per head or abouΥt 7*5 per cent. Κ 360 The introduction is recorded of a new pattern of mile post constructed oΗf wrought iron of a character calculated to resist the attentions of evil disposed persons who find pleasure in destroying articles of utility. The Ortakeuy-Aghirda Diversion was completed as to formation and broughΚ t into use. It constitutes a most important improvement in communication between Nicosia and Kyrenia and avoids the objectionable road through very broken country by way of Dicomo. This continues the virtual reconstruction of the Nicosia-Kyrenia Road. Η Through the absence of sound stone for road metal near Famagusta it became necessary to fetch limestone from the sea shore near Tricomo by lighters a distance of 13 or 14 miles. This stone was broken at Famagusta and delivereΘ d on the roads in the vicinity with results which have been highly beneficial. The Koutrapha-Evrychou Road was improved to the extent of converting it from a 4th to a Srd Class Road, the work involving the substitution of gradients of 1 in 15 for those of 1 in 12, and the widening throughouΟt to 16 ft. carriage way. This road was originally and before its continuatioΙn to Troodos was con­ templated, or, indeed, considered possible, opened as a 4th Class Road. A practical commencement was made upon the Bridle Road from Karavostassi to Ambelikou and Kambos by the cutting of a berm 6Λ ft. wide on a portion of the route. The Nicosia-Paleokhori Road was advanced a further stage by cutting a berm on the lines of a Srd Class Road of 8 ft. wide alsΒo for a part of the distance. The reconstruction of the old Military RoaΙd from the Nicosia-Larnaca Road near Goshi to Mathiaty, whicli had long been abandoned, also proceeded. A further length was added to the " Roads around Nicosia " by the formation of a road from the entrance to the HospitaΒl to the Pedias River, along what was formerly the old Strovolo Road, and thence to join the Nicosia-Deftera Road opposite to that leading from the Governmen t Offices. The construction of the Karavostassi-Papho Road through Tillyria was inaugurated by the cutting of a berm 6 ft. wide on the gradients of a Srd Class Road, from Karavostassi to within Ηa short distance of Pomos Point. A Bridle Road 6 ft. wide on the gradient of a Srd Class Road was opened between Platres and Prodromes along the southern slopes of Olympus. The Limassol-Zoopiyi-AgroΚs Road was advanced by continuing the 8 ft. berm over a portion of the route ; the total distance effected to the close of the year was 6*75 miles. The Trimiklini-KarvounΑa Road was opened with the necessary bridges one of which, that crossing Ιthe Amiandos River, is probably the tallest, as it is among the most remarkable, being constructed of masonry 30 ft. clear span and 45 ft. above the river bed, in the Island. This road connectΡs at Karvouna with the Nicosia-Troodos Road, via Astro­ meriti and Evi-ykhou, and therefore offers an alternative and much easier route from Limassol to Troodos while it also affects a most important connection between Western MessaoriΠa and the . A long-desired and most important connection was made between the Wine Roads System and the Limassol-Platres Road by the construction of the Omodhos- Mandria Road. This was inaugurated with appropriate ceremony on the day of OmodhosΥ Fair, 27th September, 1901. Κ 86D The Ktima-Polis direct route, through Stroumbi, Yiolou and Chrysokhou, was commenced by the construction of the Tsada-Stroumbi Section. Η The most important items of Bridge Work included the reconstruction and widening of the bridge crossing the Pedias River on the Nicosia-Morphou Road in the suburbs of Nicosia. Κ The old arch constpucted in Turkish time was rapidly falling to ruin and during a flood which occurred in the middle of May—one of the highest on record—was nearly carried away. It is worthy of note that during thΗe work of reconstruction the old prependicular abutment was unmasked and indications discovered of a timber superstructure previously existing; this had been replaced, apparently by the masonry arch which in turn has been replaced by the present structure. Θ The other bridge of consequence was that at Kalavasso where the masonry piers were built ready for the reception of the steel trough superstructiire, a novelty in Cyprus. The completion of this bridge was delayeΟd by the non-arrival of the latter. Ι The crusade against Irish bridges was carried on and the number of these offensive and dangerous obstacles to traffic sensibly diminished. 1902-1903. Λ The year which is just closing has been one of unusual activity brought about by the distress which has prevailed in nearly Βall parts of the country through deficient harvest and scarcity of rain. Ι The direct results have been the inauguration of Relief Works in all District^, the indirect, a much larger amount of work accomplished by reason of reduced labour rates, and estimates framed on theΒ basis of normal rates. Pressure was first felt in the Carpas where the first Relief Works were started during the last 3 months of the previou s financial year. They were continued during April and May until the ripening of the crops relieved the position, but with a thriftless and improvident community like the dwellers in this part of the Island the relief was only temporaryΗ, in fact ephemeral, and further works had to be started shortly after the crops, generally good and in fact much better ihan many other Districts, had been reaped. Morphou, Tillyria and PaphoΚs next felt the pinch and operations for the relief of distress were extended generally. Never before in the history of this Department have the rates for labour been so low as during this yearΑ. In the year 1887-1888, a sum of £3,587 2s. Ocp. was spent upon Relief Works in the Carpas. The rates paid then were between 6 and 7q). per head. In the Ιyear previous, 1886-1887, Relief Works were in operation in the Papho District where a rate of Icp. was offered but failed to attract a sufficient number of labourers to allow of the whole amount granted being spent by the close of the Ρfinancial year. In the present year the usual rate has been from 4 to 5cp. In Tillyria it has been as low as 3 to S^cp. for grown, able-bodied men. In the Messaoria workmen employed on piece work in repairing the Irrigation Works have been content to make from 2 to 4:cp. per diem. During the construc­ tion of theseΠ works a year or two ago the contract rate for earthwork was £1 per 1,000 cubic feet; the rates paid this year have been 6s. for the same quantity. Similarly the normal rate for breaking metal was from 9s. to lis. per cube of 100 cubic feetΥ. It is now from 3s. 5^cp. to 4s. l^cp. for the same quantity. Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ 00 O Ρ Π Υ Κ Η Κ Η Θ ΙΟ Λ ΙΒ Β Η Κ ΙΑ Ρ Π Υ Κ 36E On this account a considerably larger amount of work has been done on Main­Η tenance Work, Main Roads and the like, and the results of this have been a marked improvement in the condition of the latter the benefit of which will be felt in future years. Κ Without the statements of expenditure necessary to complete the Annual Report little can be said iu respect of Main Roads beyond recording the fact that they have, this winter, been subjected to an ordeal which seldom presentΗs itself in any country. For two or three years past the rainfall has been dificient and has certainly not sufficed for even the proper execution of the annual road repairs. Last summer was one of the driest recorded, just as the previous winter was the driest for 24 years, so far as the official records go. The past winteΘr has been characterized by unusual and occasionally continuous rain for some days. It would not have been surprising if the Main Roads had become so bad as to necessitate the suspension of traffic entirely, but no case of this kind has occurred, and they have stood a test which for severity could not be surpassed. Ο Long spells of dry weather are of themselves damagingΙ to Roads but, followed by excessive rain, the combination is one which only well made and properly main­ tained thoroughfares could resist. It is with no small degree of satisfaction that the good state of the Main Roads is recorded and no better proof can be shown of the soundnesΛ s of the Maintenance System which was introduced in 1898. ' The length of Main Roads under maintenance is given in the followiug table as 542.00 miles. Details are given iu the same oΒf the sums assigned for main­ tenance in each case, the savings effected by reasoΙn of the abnormally low rates of labour, and the final amounts to be spent in this manner. The net expenditure works out at a rate of £ 9 3s. 4^cj». per mile.

The expenditure on these will be rendered subsequently. The total number of miles maintained therefore during the current year amounts to 598*7Β5 miles. A scrutiny of the foregoing statemen t will show to what extent the rate of maintenance per mile has been reduced. Taking as a specimen, probably the best, the Nicosia-Larnaca Road it is found that the annual expenditure during the past ten years has been as follows :— 1893-1894 . . Η . _ . £1,199 3 3 1894-1895 998 10 3 1895-1896 899 10 3 1896-1897 -. ΚH - - - 898 5 0 1897-1898 - - - - - 963 8 8 1898-1899 - - - - - 854 1 1 1899-1900 Α- - - - - 735 14 4 1900-1901 - - - - - 487 6 2 1901-1902 Ι- - - - - 525 7 7 1902-1903 - - - - - 580 0 0 The rate of maintenancΡ e has therefore been reduced during the past ten years to less than one-half. From 1898-1901, that is to say, from the time the present maintenance system was brought into operation, the reduction has been from £854 to £580 or nearly 33 per cent. The fluctuation in the figures will show that this arises from noΠ mere accident nor is it to be entirely accounted for by the prevailing distress and the present low prices of labour for, as will be seen during the two years previous to this, the cost of maintenance was lower. A recent inspection of this road Υconvinces me of its excellent condition, a condition not to be surpassed by any piece of road of similar length in any of the country districts of England. Κ 36a A comparison of the general average rate for road maintenance shows thΗe followin'fcgi rates:— 1897-1898, cost per mile .... £12 14 0 1898-1899 „ .... 12 11 Κ0 1899-1900 „ _ . _ - 12 5 0 1900-1901 „ .... 10 4 0 1901-1902 „ . . - 11 0 0 1902-1903 „ .... 9Η 3 41 exclusive of Limassol Wine Roads. These figures show that the rate of maintenance per mile has been reduced by nearly 39 per cent, during the last six years. Θ It might be inferred from these figures that economy had been effected at the cost of the traveller but far from this being the case the wayfarer gets over the country with greater ease and far more confort than he did six years ago while, owing to the improvement in the condition of surface journeysΟ, now occupy from 25 to 30 per cent, less time than they used to. CarriageΙs and carts are annually increasing in number, the rates for transport are being lowered, and a more striking proof than all is the improved style of carriage and diligence now to be seen on the Roads, and the smarter and better conditioned animalΛs drawing them. The Divisional Engineers have exercised great care and given much attention to enforcing the present system and the results are greatly to their credit. In the Eastern Division whereas the contraction of roadΒs is not attended with so many difficulties as elsewhere, the maintenance is notΙ so easy by reason of the absence of suitable material for road-making and stone for metal. Great credit is therefore due to the Executive Officer for the state of the roads in his charge. On the other hand in the Western Division good stone is as a general rule within easy reach of the Main Roads in almost every part thougΒh the country is more broken up and there are more obstacles to road-making . Since the appointment of an Executive Officer in charge of the Western Division the roads under his care have shewn great improvement and this is most marked in the case of the Limassol-PaphoΗ s Road the condition of which is excellent. Among the more important works carried out in connection with the existing Main Roads, the following maΚy be noted :— The metalling and completion of the diversion of the Nicosia-Kyrenia Road between Orta-Keuy and Aghirda through Geunyeli, the consequence of which is that carriage drivers reporΑt that they can perform the journey betwen Nicosia and Kyrenia in an hour less than formerly. This, in refutation of the statement freely made when the diversioΙn was commenced, that the work was unnecessary and unjustifiable. A further andΡ final improvement was carried out between Aghirda and St. Catherine's Pass by the insertion of another new piece of road, on a gradient of 1 in 17 in substitution of those of 1 in 7 and 1 in 9 on the old road now eliminated. This road from being one of the worst, most difficult, and steepest in the Island is now one of Πthe best. The Nicosia-Morphou Road was improved between Akachia and Peristerona by the eliminatioΥn of gradients of 1 in 7 and 1 in 11 and the substitution of those of 1 in 15, Κ 36H The Nicosia-Varoshia Road was also improved in a similar manner between AyΗ. Kendea and Famagusta gradients of 1 in 15 and 1 in 20 substituting those of 1 in 7 and 1 in 10. These works complete the improvements necessary to this road which is now in excellent order. The journey can now be accomplished in from 5 to 5| hours without a change of horses excluding a halt midway of from 1Κ^ to 2 hours. The Nicosia-Deftera-Aradhiou Road has been greatly improved by being newly formed and gravelled for a length of 6 miles between Nicosia and LakatamiaΗ . The Nicosia-Troodos Road was greatly improved between Kakopetria and Karvouna by the construction of 1 mile and 1226 yards of new road on easier gradients and a diminution in the number of zig-zags. Other small works of improvement were also carried out. Θ The old Military Road between the Nicosia-Larnaca Road near Goshi and the Nicosia-Limassol Road near Nissou to Mathiati, was reconstructed and the con­ nection between the two Trunk Roads completed. It had Οlong gone out of repair having been abandoned upon the withdrawal of the Military from the old Camping Ground at Mathiati. Animals had continued to use it Ιbut carriages could not traverse it; it is now quite suitable for carriage traffic and the journey from Larnaca to Nicosia may now be agreeably varied by following this route. The construction of the Nicosia-Paleokhori RoadΛ was advanced a further stage by the cutting of a Bridle Road on Srd Class gradients for upwards of 7 miles between Kalokhorio Bridge and Paleokhori and Βthe construction of certain bridges. The Ambelikou-Kambos Road was likewise advanced by the completion of the berm the whole way to Kambos. This is an importanΙ t undertaking and there are no serious obstacles to prevent the present Bridle Road being converted into a Carriage Road, the gradients being anything but severe. Three Bridges, the only ones absolutely necessary were also constructeΒd on this route. The Leonarisso-Rizo Carpas Road , an alternative route through Ay. Symeon, Korovia and Galinoporni, commenced as a Relief Work during the latter end of the previous financial year was completed and opened for traffic before the harvest set in and rendered further relief unnecessary for the time. This was the original route adopted for the Main CarpaΗs Road and the trace was opened first of all more than 20 years ago. It should never have been abandoned as it opens up much richer land suitable especially for Cotton Cultivation than that on the Northern side of the PromontoryΚ. A bridge was constructed over the Mavroyi River besides certain culverts. The system of Main Carriage Roads was extended by the widening of the Kara­ vostassi-Pomos Road fromΑ 6 feet to full width as far as Mansoura and this work will continue it is hopeΙd until the whole length to Polls is opened. A large number of bridges and culverts were built. The Angolemi-Lefka Road was completed and opened for traffic,'the necessary bridges and culvertsΡ, except those over the Karyoti River and the Lefka Argaki, being also constructed. A Bridle Road was opened between Evrychou through Tembria to the summit of the ridge betweeΠ n the Solia and the Marathassa Valleys above Nikos. It should be continued to the latter village as the descent from the Pass is excessively steep and dangerous. An Υimportant improvement was carried out, adding to the attractions of Lar­ naca, by the construction of a Boulevard 60 ft. wide to the Westwards of the town, Κ 36i leaving the Nicosia-Iiamaca Road near the Hospital and proceeding to the SaltΗ Lake connecting with the Lamaca-Zygi Road near the Powder Magazine. A length of road formed during the previous year between the General Hospital at Nicosia and the Pedias River, the old road to Strovolo was metalleΚd and completed. A short piece of road was made between Ay. Omoloyitades and the British Cemetery Nicosia. Η A road nearly 3 miles in length was opened between the Nicosia-Larnaca Road near Eglengia to the Srd mile on the Nicosia-Limassol Road by way of Athalassa Chiftlik recently acquired by Government. Θ Improvements were carried out between Yialoussa and Rizo Carpas including a diversion up the Rizo Carpas Hill where a gradient of 1 in 15 was put in in substitution of those of 1 in 7 and 1 in 11. A connection was made between Kondemenos and MyrtoΟu on the style of a Srd Class Road. Ι The Nicosia-Kophinou Road was improved by the construction of two diver­ sions between the 8th and llth miles with gradients of 1 in 17 and 1 in 20 instead of those of 1 in 9^ and 1 in 11 on the old road. Λ A very important piece of work was done in connecting the villages of Lapithos and Myrtou by a road through the Panagra Pass. It was sufficiently advanced in September to allow of my driving over it in a lighΒt two-wheeled cart. Various small lengths of road were made aΙs relief works in and in the neigh­ bourhood of Old Larnaca. A New Entrance to the town of Nicosia on the North-East and facing Kaimakli was carried out much to the advantagΒe of residents in that quarter of the town which is thickly populated. The site of a New Famagusta between the Old Fortress and Varoshia was marked out and certain road work thereon commenced. The formation of a piece of roaΗd joining the Famagusta-Tricomo and the Tricomo-Carpas Roads near the Bougaz and running- through the Livadia-tou- Tricomou was undertaken. It has been generally used by carts, etc., going from Famagusta to the Carpas but haΚs been in very bad order. In the Western Division the following are the most important works to be recorded. The continuation of Αthe Tsada-Stroumbi Road to Yiolou and onwards to Polls and Pomos, at inten^als, with a view to eventually connecting with the work preceeding from the NicosiΙ a Side and thus completing the circuit of that part of the Island and accomplishing one of the most important enterprises of recent years. The work has sufficientlΡ y far advanced to permit of my driving the whole way from Ktima by way of Tsada, Strumbi, Yiolou to Polls and thence through Tillyria to Karavostassi during the latter end of August and to repeat this in reverse in the following month of January ; the first pair of wheels which have ever penetrated sa far into whaΠt was considereed not long ago a semibarbaric and mysterious, the unknown being always mysterious, country like Tillyria. The first diligence traversed this new road from Ktima as far as Loukrounou Mill, wherΥe further progress was barred by the absence of bridges, in the middle of JanuarΚy last. S6J The constraction of the Limassol-Agros Road was advanced by the opening of a Bridle Road on the gradients of a Srd Class Carriage Road the whole way. Η Portions of it at the Agros end were also widened to full width of roadway and a number of culverts built. Improvements were carried out to the Kophinou-Limassol Road on the Κ28th and 29th Miles and the widening of the road-way through Moni Pass formerly only wide enough for one Vehicle and therefore extremely awkward. Relief Works in Paphos included amongst other things the constructioΗn of a Bridle Road from Ktima to Kathika by way of Kissonerga and Peyia. This greatly increases the facilities of communication between the points named and the old road up the Kathika hill formerly very steep and difficult has been substi­ tuted by an entirely new and much easier route. Θ The connection by means of a Carriage Road between Stroumbi and Kathika was also undertaken thus permitted communication between Ktima and Polls by vehicular traffic with Kathika and the table land in that neighbourhoodΟ . The continuation of the Ktima-Simou Road to the NewΙ Road from Ktima to Polls near Loukrounou was also undertaken. When these connections are completed the District of Paphos will be very well roaded. A Bridle Road on the gradients of a Srd Class RoaΛd was opened between the Trimiklini-Karvouna Road near Saita Bridge and the Limassol-Agross Road at Orongo by way of Xylouriko Bridge. A Carriage Road was commenced betweenΒ Perapedia and Saita on the Trimiklini-Karvouna Road and the preliminary berm cut throughout permitting traffic to use this track as a Bridle Path until thΙe widening has been done. This is a most desirable work as there has been a considerable increase in the araount of traffic through the Karvouna Pass since the road was opened on either side. A Bridle Road on Srd Class gradients Βwas opened between Mandria and Ay. Nicola thus greatly improving the communicatio n between the Northern portions of the two Districts of Limassol and Paphos. The foregoing constitutes an important chapter in the history of road-making in Cypras and the development of thΗe Island. As the 25th Anniversary of the British Occupation is approaching it will not be out of place to review work done in this regard under British Rule. Efforts have been made toΚ record how the Road Systems have been developed from time to time and by reference to documents of various kinds evidence has been collected to show what has been done and the amounts which have been spent on such and similar works. Α A great impetus was given to road-making in 1898, and the past five years will stand out conspicuouΙs in this regard probably for all time. History would not be complete without an allusion to the work done under Village Roads Laws and when this is included it will be found that the total length of Public RoadΡs constructed either as Carriage or Bridle Roads and by the Public Works and Village Road Departments amounts in all to over 1,000 miles. A detailed Statement is subjoined giving full particulars of the work done in the past five years during which it has fallen to the lot of the present writer to advise Government inΠ such matters. So^ie of the Roads included in this Statement are not yet fully completed but it is anticipateΥd that they will be so before the Quarter of a Century of British Rule has been accomplished, Κ 36K Statement of Road Work performed between 1898 and 1903, under thΗe supervision or advice of the Public Works Department, including Main Roads, Bridle Roads, Side Paths, Berms and Village Roads.

There are probably few countries in the world which can compare witΙh these figures and still fewer to surpass them. The length of roads has been more than doubled in the last five years. For facility of reference a Map has beeΒn prepared shewing in black lines the work done previous to 1st April, 1898, and in red those works carried out since and which have come therefore under th e observation of the writer. 1903-1904Η . In contradistinction to the previous year that just passed has been one of plenty, consequently tlie remarkable increase in the mileage of Carriage Roads whicli occurred during 1902-3 has not been maintained and the year's work lias consisted chiefly of filling up gapΚs left in the main road schemes of the previous year. In the hill districts of Limassol and Paphos the harvest though plentious was late and was not reaped untiΑl the end of May, Relief Works being continued u]) to the end of that month. Ι There was a general cessation of nearly all work during the months of .lune, July and August, roadwork during that tirae, with few exceptions, being at a standstill. In SeptembeΡ r work was renewed, the wages paid being still below the normal although naturally higher than during the preceding year. The only exception being on the Irrigation Works where, owing to the extraordinary harvest, labour could noΠt be obtained, at lower rates than 1 s. per day. Owing to the fact that much of this year's vote had been drawn upon in order to carry out the various Relief Works of the previous year the sums allowed for maintenancΥ e had to be reduced, a regretable though necessary action, and it Κ 36N has consequently not been possible to maintain the roads in quite the same excellent condition as at the end of last year, though in the majority of cases they may be looked upon as equal to carrying properly the amount of traffic which theyΗ are called upon to bear. In the maintenance works done the chief item is the great improvement made to the surface of the Nicosia-Peristerona Road. This road originally surfaceΚd with gravel sufficiently to carry the light traffic between Nicosia and Morphou was quite unable to bear the heavy work thrown on it by the cart traffic due to the opening of the road to Troodos and had for the last two years shown signs of breaking up. A large sum of money was granted for its proper repaiΗr and this road has now been remetalled almost throughout. A small improvement was made on the 19th mile on the Nicosia-Kophinou Road where a short diversion was carried out substituting a gradienΘt of lin 17 for that of 1 in 11 which previously existed and doing away with an unnecessary rise and fall. The Evrykhou-Troodos Road between Kakopetria and Karvouna saddle was surfaced with rock debris where necessary, and a great improvemenΟ t was effected as the surface of the road formed from the side cutting waΙs breaking up and had become in dry wheather, very dusty, and in wet, muddy. The following table gives the mileage of the Main Roads maintained during this year with sums allotted to each. Λ This expenditure works out at the rate of £6 3 1 per mile.

The expenditure on these has been £527 19 5. Β Of constructional work first and foremost Ιmust rank the completion of the formation with all absolutely necessary bridges of the Karavostassi-Polis-Paphos Road whereby the wilds of Tylliria have been opened up and an alternative route both shorter and easier made between Nicosia and Paphos. Hardly second to this is the completionΒ of the last link in the Circular Island Road, namely, that between Morphou and Myrtou. The construction of the Nicosia-Paleokhorio Road was further advanced by the completion of the bridle path on lines of a TIL class road, and by the con­ tinuation of the widening, by villagΗe labour, of the part madt' last ycju'. Veiy little more work will now suffice to make this road practicable for carts. Various diversions were carried out on the old Platres-Troodos Military mule path and little now remains to bΚe done to complete the conversion of this track, previously only just passable for a lightly laden cart, into a good IV class carriage road. A commencement waΑs made by cutting the preliminary berm of a road to join the main road near the Chief Secretary's Office, Troodos, with the Plrtres- Prodromo Road near TrooditissΙ a Monastery, Improvements were made to the private carriage drive to Government Cottage, Troodos, the line for, and construction of which, had been undertaken by the Royal Engineers somΡe years ago. No bridges of \'ery great size were constructed during this year though some most useful work has Iteeii done, chief among these being the completion of all absolutely necessarΠy bridges between Stroumbi-Polis, Polis-Pomos and Karavostassi- Pomos ; also tlie construction of the bridges over the Ovgos and Aloupos Rivers between Morphou and Myrtou and the widening of the existing wooden bridges and the buildinΥg of a new stone bridge m the Panagra Pass. Κ D2t 36p Although more bridges are still required on the above roads enough' has been done to render carriage traffic possible along them at all times except perhapsΗ during the occurrence of very high floods. In reviewing the roadwork of the last six years it becomes evident that the system of Main Trank Roads is almost complete and little new work remainΚs to be done. Other branch roads are of course still required to connect some of the larger and more important villages at present still isolated, but with the exception of the continuatiou of the Kyrenia North Coast Road to AkanthoΗu and the completion of the road already half done between that village and Lefkonico the system is complete. Some of the roads still require metalling but this will come in time and is not of such material importance as even those unmetalled are passable for wheeled traffic during eleven months of the year.

The Nicosia-Larnaca Road.—Commences at the Faraagusta Gate at Nicosia, proceeds straight to Aglanja, etc., and terminates at the sea shore Κat the root of the Pier at Larnaca, measuring 25 miles 980 yards. The width is, generally speaking, that of a second class road, but is variable. The metalKiig is, as a rule, 12' 0" feet wide but this also varies. Maintained as a secondΗ class road. No. 2. The Nicosia-Kophinou Road.—Commences at the hne of fortifica­ tions at the Ay. Antoni Entrance to Nicosia, proceeds straight past the Church of Ay. Paraskevi, and terminates at the junction with the Larnaca-Kophinou Road near Pano Kophinou, measuring 25 miles 1,580 yards. ΘThe width is, generally speaking, that of a third class road, but is variable. It was originally only a gravelled road but the repairs are being carried out with broken metal 9' 0" wide. Maintained as a third class road. No. 3. The Kophinou-Limassol Road.—Commences Οat the junction of the Nicosia-Kophinou and Larnaca-Kophinou Roads near PanΙo Kophinou and pro­ ceeds to the suburbs of Limassol, turning off the Main road past the Commis­ sioner's house to join the Limassol-Troodos Road at the Police Depdt at Limassol and measures 28 miles 420 yards. Maintained as a thirΛd class road. No. 4. The Nicosia-Varoshia Road.—Branches off the Nicosia-Larnaca Road at the Moslem cemetery outside the Famagusta Gate at Nicosia and terminates at the commencement of the Bazaar at Varoshia, Βpassing the entrance to the town of Famagusta and raeasures 38 miles 240 yards. The width of the road varies considerably, in some places being wider than Ιa third class road in others being only the fourth class width. The repairs are being carried out with broken metal 9' 0" wide and third class formation. No. 5. The Nicosia-Kyrenia Road.—BrancheΒ s off the circular road round Nicosia at the South Western corner of the Moslem cemetery outside the Kyrenia Gate, and passing through the Villages of Orta-Keuy and GioneUi terminates at the entrance to the Fort at Kyrenia and measures 16 miles 440 yards. The recent Daoud Dere diversion having shortened it by three-quarters of a mile. The width is that of a third class road Ηexcept between the llth and Hth miles where it is generally only about 12 feet wide. No. 5A. The Dicomo Loop Road.—This used to form part of the old Nicosia- Kyrer.^^rl* ~a,d now diverted Κvia Gionelli. It commences at the Pedias Bridge, and passing through the village of Dicomo rejoins the Nicosia-Kyrenia Road at Aghirda. Its length is 9^ miles. No. 6. The Nicosia-MorphoΑ u Road.—Commences at the line of fortifications at Paphos Gate at NicosiΙa and terminates at the first house in Morphou measuring 23-75 miles. The width is very variable though where repairs are being carried out the formation is made for a third class road with broken metal 9' 0" wide. The road was originally surfaced, if surfaced at all, with gravel, but is now only treated as a gravelleΡd road beyond the village of Akachi, between Nicosia and that village repairs are carried out with broken metal. No. 7. The Nicosia-Deftera-Khrou Road.—Commences at the Paphos Gate at the junctioΠn with the Nicosia-Morphou Road at Nicosia proceeds direct through the village of Ay. Omoloyitades, past Government House, and terminates one mile beyond the village of Khrou measuring 18 miles. The widths vary con­ siderablyΥ being those of a second class road between the Paphos Gate and Govern­ ment House except through the village of Ay. Omoloyitades, from Government Κ 39 House to Lakatamia it is a third class road and thence onwards about fourth classΗ. It is only metalled as far fis Government House, Thence onwards to Anayia being surfaced with river sliingle. It is maintained as a third class road. No. 7A.
