**Nicosia DLGO Launches Interactive Dangerous Buildings Registry**
On July 31, 2026, the Nicosia District Local Government Organisation (DLGO) introduced an innovative digital service designed to enhance public safety by providing residents with direct access to information regarding dangerous buildings within the Nicosia district. This new interactive registry aims to inform citizens about structures deemed hazardous or in need of urgent repair.
The digital registry categorizes buildings based on their status, with a total of 712 structures currently listed. Of these, 657 have been classified as dangerous, while 55 are identified as requiring repairs. The buildings are distributed across both urban and rural areas, with 310 located in urban settings and 402 in rural communities. The registry encompasses 72 administrative areas throughout the Nicosia district.
Residents can utilize the interactive map and search functionalities to navigate the registry by specific administrative areas, allowing for a tailored exploration of the data. This feature is particularly beneficial for residents who wish to assess the safety of buildings in their vicinity or understand the broader context of hazardous structures in their community.
The establishment of this registry follows the transfer of responsibilities from the former authorities, including various municipalities and the Nicosia District Administration, to the DLGO on April 30, 2025. The DLGO’s Dangerous Buildings Sector is tasked with conducting on-site inspections and evaluating both previously classified structures and any new cases that may arise.
The registry is designed to be dynamic, automatically updating as new information becomes available. This ensures that residents have access to the most current data regarding the safety of buildings in their area. The DLGO emphasizes that this initiative is part of a broader effort towards digital transformation, aimed at enhancing public transparency and safety.
The interactive registry is accessible through the Nicosia DLGO's official website, where users can find detailed information and utilize the interactive map. The link to the registry can be found at: [Nicosia DLGO Dangerous Buildings Registry](https://ndlgo.org.cy/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/EOA_Landing_Epikindynes_Oikodomes.html).
This new service represents a significant step forward in the DLGO's commitment to effectively manage dangerous buildings and keep the public informed about potential hazards in their environment. As urban safety continues to be a priority for local governments, the Nicosia DLGO's initiative may serve as a model for other regions seeking to enhance community safety through technology.
