Changes to bus routes

The plan for the restructuring of the transport network that has been formulated by OASA for the interconnection of the municipalities in the areas where the new metro stations “Maniatika”, “Piraeus”, “Municipal Theatre” are located and for the possibility of new transfers, is based on reinforcements and modifications of bus lines. The reconfiguration of the lines is divided into two phases:

During the first phase, with the start of operation of the three new stations, direct interventions are foreseen, which will be evaluated after the first period of operation of the stations. Then and in a reasonable period of time, the next redesign phase will follow, which will include additional transportation arrangements, which will be required after the complete operation of Line 3, following an assessment and evaluation of the established situation in the transportation network of the wider region.

In more detail, the following interventions have been planned:

– The bus line 831 Aegaleo – Piraeus is reinforced with additional routes throughout the day.

– Bus line 810 Schistos – Korydallos is being modified into a feeder line for the “Korydallos” metro station and will be interconnected with Petrou Ralli Avenue.

– Bus line 830 Agia Varvara – Piraeus is being modified into a feeder line for the “Korydallos” metro station.

– The bus line 846 Neapoli – Nice – Piraeus is being modified into a feeder line for the “Nicaia” metro station.

– Bus line 900, which was created in the last 2 years to cover the transition period between the operation of the “Korydallos” and “Nikaia” metro stations and the 3 new stations of “Piraeus”, is abolished.

The starting points and ending points of the existing bus lines remain as they are.
