The main axes of the holistic development program for Western Attica, with a total budget of 546.3 million euros, were presented by Regional Governor of Attica, Nikos Hardaliato the Mayors of the five municipalities of the region, with the aim of specializing additional projects that will improve the daily life of citizens.
“We are here to mark the start of a new day for Western Attica, with a cooperative spirit and an appetite for work,” said Mr. Hardalias, noting that for the first time an integrated program is being implemented for the region that focuses on 6 priority pillars, with more than 65 major works, which will be a legacy for future generations.
The program concerns “5+1” sectors: road safety and infrastructure, flood defense and protection, environment and quality of life, social cohesion, strengthening entrepreneurship, innovation and digital transformation.
