“Egnatia Odos is one of the most challenging infrastructure projects in Greece.
The studies were carried out in the 1990s, and construction — through fragmented contracting arrangements — lasted from 1998 to 2009, creating major inconsistencies in technical solutions and equipment. As a result, the new concessionaire inherited infrastructure without certification and with little meaningful maintenance carried out in recent years.
Through investments of €500 million over the next five years, Egnatia Odos will be transformed into a safe, smart, green, and energy-autonomous motorway, equipped with advanced traffic management systems, reaffirming its role as a central European artery, a gateway to the Balkans, and a catalyst for the development of Northern Greece”.
