Traffic restrictions are in place in central Athens due to ongoing works by EYDAP, the Athens water supply and sewage company. Vehicle movement is particularly difficult around the Children’s Hospital (Pai̱don Hospital) in Athens as a result.
Fokidos Street Fully Closed
According to an official announcement by the Athens General Directorate of Traffic (GADA), Fokidos Street — located adjacent to the Children’s Hospital — is fully closed to traffic. The closure runs from the intersection with Thivon Street up to its junction with Michalakopoulou Street.
This full traffic stoppage, implemented due to EYDAP infrastructure works, directly affects access to and movement around the Children’s Hospital and has increased congestion in the surrounding area.
