Description
The project involves the design and construction of a new 2x3-lane urban expressway along the sea front of Thessaloniki to provide east-west traffic with an alternative to passing through the city streets. Approximately 6km of new road will be constructed of which 4.5km are in tunnel and 1.24 km are immersed in the bed of the harbour.
Objectifs
The proposed project has been a key element of Thessaloniki's Urban Master Plan since 1987. It is furthermore an integral part of the city's multi-modal transport strategy (including Thessaloniki Metro) which aims to comprehensively deal with congestion at the historic city-centre while at the same time linking the South East metropolitan area (which is heavily populated) with the North West area in which most economic activity takes place.
