Transport Minister Yiannis Karousos with Interior Minister Nicos Nouris on Friday briefed the mayors of Dherynia and Sotira on a tender announcement for improvement works on the road connecting the two municipalities.
The project is estimated to cost around €13 million and is expected to begin before the end of 2021 and finish within a 30-month window. Eighty per cent of the funds will be provided by the state, with the rest covered by local authorities.
As well as a 4km stretch of road connecting the two areas, the project will take on an additional 2.5km of secondary road network. It will include the construction of two lanes going in opposite directions and an additional third lane for right turns.
