Infrastructure and service issues in Euboea
Overview
In late October 2026, Greek Members of Parliament raised formal inquiries regarding the deteriorating road network in Northern Euboea. Lawmakers, including Theodoras Akriotou and Giorgos Marinos, criticized the government for failing to provide permanent solutions to recurring landslides and road collapses in the Prokopio–Mantungidi area. They alleged that previous flood prevention projects were inadequate and that existing infrastructure remains unreliable despite promised reconstruction packages.
By November 2026, regional concerns expanded to include the downgrading of public services. The ADEEDY labor union filed a complaint against the planned centralization of tax services, which includes the closure of offices in Istiaia, Karystos, and Limni. Concurrently, the Euboea Chamber of Commerce and Vice Regional Governor Giorgos Kelaiditis continued to advocate for urgent funding and repairs for the Northern Euboea road network following recent flooding. Kelaiditis met with the Deputy Minister of Climate Crisis and Civil Protection to request credits for more resilient infrastructure to withstand extreme weather events.
