Elliniko Metro operational and legal challenges

Overview

The Elliniko Metro S.A. has faced scrutiny regarding its operational management and compliance with legal mandates in Greece.

In Thessaloniki, officials from the PASOK political party met with company management to address technical faults and delays in the metro system. PASOK representatives discussed the maintenance contract model and suggested that the state could accelerate repairs by enforcing stricter terms and reducing contractor fees if maintenance standards are not met. They also called for a unified ticketing system.

In Athens, Mayor Haris Doukas issued a formal demand for the company to comply with a court order concerning a construction site in Exarcheia Square. The Mayor requested the removal of fencing to restore a road width of at least 3.50 meters on Themistokleous Street, citing the necessity for unobstructed passage for emergency vehicles such as ambulances and fire services.
