The implementation of an extensive infrastructure program, spanning the entire country and aiming to upgrade Greece’s geostrategic role, is in full progress.

As recently emphasized by the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Christos Dimas, the country is in a phase of intense construction activity, with projects that act as a driver of economic recovery and sustainable development. “We are modernizing the existing network and creating new infrastructure, strengthening Greece’s position as a critical hub for international freight transport,” he noted.

A central role in the planning is played by the European connectivity corridors, with Greece actively participating in the Baltic–Black Sea–Aegean Corridor and the Western Balkans–Eastern Mediterranean Corridor. These axes are no longer limited to the transport of goods and passengers, but incorporate critical functions related to energy, security, and the resilience of supply chains, thereby enhancing the country’s role in the European and international environment.
