Construction work on the 'Liosion' tunnel of the Attica Road will persist until Monday, February 16, prompting the Greek Police to extend previously announced traffic regulations on this vital highway. Specific closures will affect entries towards the airport from areas like Mandra-Eidyllia, Elefsina, Aspropyrgos, and Fyli, until six in the morning on Monday. The affected entries include Mandra (junction 1), Aspropyrgos (junction 4), and Aigaleo (junction 5). Drivers heading towards the airport are urged to consider alternative routes and allow for extra travel time.

During these closures, the flow of vehicles will be redirected through designated routes to mitigate congestion. Specifically, traffic heading towards Athens city center will need to use Athens Avenue, while vehicles traveling towards Lamia are advised to take Athens Avenue and Kifisos Avenue. For those heading to the airport, the capacity is maintained through the same arterial roads. Authorities recommend that drivers remain vigilant and patient while navigating these changes, as significant delays are anticipated.

This extended construction and resulting traffic alterations highlight ongoing infrastructure work aimed at improving the capacity and safety of one of Greece's most crucial roadways. Such projects reflect the continuous efforts to modernize transportation networks in urban areas, although they can lead to short-term inconvenience for commuters and travelers. Stakeholders are encouraged to stay informed about traffic conditions to mitigate disruptions over the coming days.
