As the August holiday period concludes, the Attica region is experiencing significant movement across both maritime and road networks. In late August, a surge in passenger traffic was noted at the ports of Piraeus, Rafina, and Lavrio, with departures for the Greek islands expected to exceed 80,000 travelers over a three-day period. Road networks have faced sustained pressure. By early September, heavy traffic congestion returned to the Athens metropolitan area as residents returned from summer holidays. Kifissos Avenue and Kifissias Avenue saw significant delays, including a three-vehicle accident near Lenorman in Sepolia. On the Attiki Odos, delays of 15 to 20 minutes were reported toward the airport from Metamorfosi to the Pentelis exit. By September 8, major delays persisted on Kifissos Avenue and the Attiki Odos, with airport-bound delays exceeding 30 minutes from Fylis to Kifissias. On September 21, major congestion recurred, with Kifissos Avenue seeing heavy traffic in both directions. By September 23, delays continued, including a vehicle breakdown on Kifissos Avenue and a four-vehicle collision on Kareas Avenue. On September 28, heavy congestion persisted, with Attiki Odos reporting delays exceeding 30 minutes toward the airport. By October 5, heavy traffic and low speeds continued on major arteries. On October 13, a collision between a minibus and a private vehicle on Kifissos Avenue created a nine-kilometer bottleneck toward Renti. On October 19, significant delays were reported across the region, including heavy congestion on Kifissos Avenue in both directions and up to 25 minutes of delays on the Attiki Odos toward the airport. On October 23, severe bottlenecks were noted on the Kifissos highway from Egaleo to Nea Filadelfeia, while Attiki Odos saw airport-bound delays of 20 to 25 minutes between the Dimokratias and Kifisias junctions.
