European Standards & Alignment

ITS Cyprus is a non-profit association under establishment. Its work follows the EU ITS Directive 2010/40/EU (as revised by Directive (EU) 2023/2661) and supports national transport policy in Cyprus.

  • ITS Directive 2010/40/EU
  • Directive (EU) 2023/2661
  • DATEX II
  • NeTEx / SIRI

Five focus areas for mobility in Cyprus

Shaped by what makes Cyprus different: an island with no railway, high car dependency and a busy tourist season.

  • Safe roads for everyone

    Vision Zero and the Safe System: evidence from collision data, protection for people walking and cycling, and safe speeds.

  • Connected roads

    Cooperative ITS (C-ITS) and V2X, digital road infrastructure, and real-time traffic information.

  • Island & visitor mobility

    Journeys that work for residents and visitors alike: links to airports, ports and resorts, seasonal demand and rental fleets.

  • Clean & shared transport

    Electric vehicles and charging, public transport people choose over the car, cycling and micromobility.

  • Open mobility data

    Supporting the National Access Point, European standards (DATEX II, NeTEx, SIRI) and mobility data spaces.

From ideas to working systems

Practical projects, run by ITS Cyprus, that put open data and Intelligent Transport Systems to work.

Launching ITS Cyprus: Building a Neutral Table to Drive Transport Innovation and Road Safety

At the 8th Sustainable Mobility and Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference, the official launch of the ITS Cyprus initiative marked a major step toward modernising national mobility. Conceived as a non-profit association, the platform brings together public authorities, academic research, and the mobility sector to build a unified voice for intelligent transport and safe streets.

Beyond the 800-Million-Euro Illusion: Why Mayors Must Anchor Transit Corridors into Town Plans

At the National Sustainable Mobility Conference, municipal leaders admitted collective failure over private car dominance despite 800 million euros in transport spending. Their demand to legally bind mobility projects into Local Town Plans is technically sound, but decentralisation must not become another excuse to delay bus lanes and sidewalk clearing today.

The Illusion of Rails: Why Former Transport Minister Yiannis Karousos Is Right About Buses and Trams

In a direct assessment of Limassol's traffic paralysis, former Transport Minister Yiannis Karousos dismantles the municipal debate over a 500-million-euro tram network. Pointing out that modern buses on dedicated corridors deliver identical transit speeds at a fraction of the cost, he exposes how local authorities embrace attractive urban squares while sabotaging essential bus lanes.
