The contract for the northern part of the E65 highway will be signed tomorrow, as announced by the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Mr. Costas Karamanlis, speaking to Parapolitika 90.1 FM. "A very big effort has been made in the last 23 months, we have worked intensively to unblock projects that we found "stuck". In fact, the contract for the northern part of the E65, which is close to 442 million euros, will be signed tomorrow," he said.

Athens metro commuters were in for a nasty surprise on Wednesday morning, when a train stopped dead on its tracks and passengers were forced to walk along the tracks to the next station.

Tragically, a male died this morning after falling on the Athens metro tracks, as a train pulled up to the Omonia station.
