. The Larnaca beltway section, until the final phase was completed, used to culminate in an acute bend which was a major accident blackspot.

The motorway was built in 3 stages: the first was the Rizoelia Junction to Dhekelia which opened in 1932, the second was the Rizoelia junction to Dromolaxia, which opened 1993, and the third was the Dhekelia to Ayia Napa road, which opened in 2003.
