SKAI’s great investigation in the neighborhoods of Athens is revealing – Damaged sidewalks, garbage, rubble, sidewalks exclusively for motorbikes and cars
O SKAI today starts big research on the problems of our everyday life. The autopsy begins tonight from Attiki. Damaged sidewalks, some completely impassable, but full of debris or blocked by parked vehicles, mounds of garbage, dug-up roads. Images from the daily life experienced by residents in areas of Attica that degrade their quality of life.
How easy is it for someone to walk the streets of the city?
Sky’s research in the neighborhoods of Attica is revealing. Rubbish, debris, sidewalks exclusively for motorbikes and cars. Check out these images of everyday madness in the video below:
PAGRATE
A simple walk down Phrynis Street in Pagrati is enough and you will come across these projects that are in the middle of the sidewalk. According to the residents of the area, these works started about 20 to 10 days ago, but as you can see, they have not been completed until today. There is a huge hole, broken tiles that have come out of the pavement, there is also the fence, but according to the residents, someone needs to come and repair this damage immediately.
On Ymettou Avenue at a key point there is another project. This project is finished, but in the video you can see what is left. The rubble remains and in it there are several pieces of iron scattered around, but also these pieces that are again iron, even if they look like a proca, that stick out from these stones. There are screws scattered about, and if you look carefully you will see that they have been dug up, the pavement is gone and this according to the residents is dangerous for passers-by.
NEW WORLD
Shall we attempt to cross the pavement in one of the straits in the New World? If we try we will succeed. But imagine a mom with a stroller, a person in a wheelchair or even someone with their pet passing through here. How much he will struggle. You will tell me there is another option. Who is she; Let someone cross the street. But cars also pass by the road.
KALLIROIS
Of course, there are also sidewalks like those in Kallirois which are full of motorbikes and in fact they are not only parked, but as you can see they are moving normally.
PASSING Hive
It is obvious that someone decided to do some work and decided to leave their rubbish here outside the school on Spetson Street in Kypseli. And as we proceed you will see that there are more and they are enough. No one has removed them for so many days.
Two women walk several meters every day to find a bin.
KALLITHEA
It would not be an exaggeration to say that a small garbage dump has been created on Arapaki Street in Kallithea. There was no more garbage in the bin and they started leaving it on the sidewalks. From drawers, picture frames, clothes, food with the stench to the point of being quite strong.
Sky’s autopsy in every corner of the city has just begun.
