Cyprus RightsThe Republic of Cyprus claims the whole island, and owes every right that claim implies to every Cypriot. Cyprus Rights documents where that duty goes unmet for Turkish Cypriots — with sources.

Main roads

Insufficiently documentedInsufficiently documented — no score

This corpus contains no systematic, dated audit of the languages on main-road signs in government-controlled areas. A route-based inventory is needed to distinguish Greek, Turkish, English transliteration and multilingual signs. The absence of that inventory cannot establish that Turkish is absent from every road sign.1

Basis and sources

Legal anchor Article 3 of the 1960 Constitution

Nobody has checked whether main-road signs in the government-controlled areas are bilingual. Cyprus Rights records that gap and does not score something it has not examined.
