The progress of the E65 is at 93% - Completion expected in the coming months
Construction of the northern section of the E65 highway in Central Greece is nearing completion, currently reported at 93% progress and funded by the Recovery and Resilience Fund.
The construction of the northern section of the E65 highway in Central Greece is entering its final phase, with progress now standing at 93%, according to Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Christos Dimas. He recently visited the construction site accompanied by General Secretary of Infrastructure Dimitris Anagnostopoulos to assess the work, which is expected to be completed within the program timeline. This project is crucial as it links the PATHE highway with the Egnatia Road, facilitating better connectivity in the region.
The northern section spans 46 kilometers and is fully financed by a substantial 452 million euros from the Recovery and Resilience Fund. Minister Dimas traversed the stretch of the under-construction highway from the Grevenon junction on the Egnatia Road to the Kalambaka junction, reporting significant progress in the construction activities. This completion will fulfill the remaining segment of the E65 highway project, which has been in the works for improving regional traffic flow and accessibility.
Overall, the completion of the E65 highway project not only promises to enhance transportation efficiency but is also expected to boost local economies by improving access to key areas. The anticipated finalization of this valuable infrastructure will play a vital role in regional development and connectivity in Greece, particularly as it supports ongoing efforts to enhance transportation networks across the country.
