Greece is deploying various smart infrastructure projects to enhance safety and traffic management across the country, funded by European recovery programs. In late September 2026, the government initiated a large-scale project to install 31,938 autonomous smart lighting poles across 13 regions. Managed by the Ministries of Digital Governance and Interior, the project targets approximately 958 kilometers of regional roads, specifically focusing on dangerous, poorly lit areas. These poles utilize LED technology, photovoltaic panels, and lithium batteries to operate independently of the electrical grid, featuring remote telemanagement for real-time monitoring. By mid-October 2026, focus expanded to student safety through a 78 million euro initiative to install 843 smart pedestrian crossings near schools in 107 municipalities. Managed by the Ministry of Digital Governance and Artificial Intelligence and funded by NextGenerationEU, these crossings use solar-powered LED road lights and vertical signage triggered by pedestrian sensors. The project, implemented by the Technical Chamber of Greece under the ‘Greece 2.0’ National Recovery and Resilience Plan, is scheduled for completion by late October 2026. These systems also collect environmental and traffic data to assist municipal management.
