In Greece, regional officials and lawmakers have raised concerns regarding infrastructure projects and public services.

In the Eleia region, PASOK MP Michalis Katrinis reported police staffing shortages to the Minister of Citizen Protection, noting that only 23 of the 32 planned officers were deployed. Katrinis also criticized the lack of progress on the Pyrgos–Kalo Nero–Tsakona road project, stating it lacks a definitive route, cost estimate, and implementation timeline.

In Thessaly, the Regional Council addressed structural failures on the 15-million-euro Rakopotamos-Keramidi road. Tasos Tsiaples of the People's Rally (LASY) reported rock and soil collapses and asphalt tearing, which led to a prosecutorial investigation and a two-month suspension of works. Questions remain regarding whether original studies included necessary technical reinforcements.
