Beschreibung

The proposed project consists of the construction of approximately 100 km of new 2x2 lane motorway sections linking Tripoli to Kalamata and a section from Lefktro to Sparti in the Peloponnese region under a DBFO scheme. It also includes the existing motorway section from Korinthos to Tripoli as well as additional new sections built by the Greek State. The 205 km motorway, from Korinthos to Kalamata (159 km) and from Lefktro to Sparti (46 km), will be operated and maintained under a 30-year concession. All sections are located on the Trans-European Road Network (TEN-T) in Greece.

Ziele

The project will deliver a high quality route offering an improved service for users capable of accommodating significantly increased traffic volumes leading to reductions in travel times, road accidents and vehicle-operating costs. The upgraded road network connecting the remote and less developed areas of southern Peloponnese with the Athens Metropolitan area and the rest of the country is expected to further develop economic opportunities in the wider region whilst significantly increasing the level of safety along the existing routes and contributing to the improvement of the environmental conditions within local communities and the region, in general.
