In Megara, Attica Regional Governor Nikos Chardalias was found to visit social structures and infrastructure projects funded by the region in the wider area.

“We remain faithful to the promise we made to the citizens of Attica, who honored us with their confidence: We will always be present in every municipality, in every neighborhood, in every corner of the Basin, to give us the battle of our self -evident,” To make West Attica a field of growth and prosperity. In close cooperation with the municipal authorities, using resources from every financial tool we have at our disposal, we systematically and steadily move on to the implementation of large infrastructure projects that change the image of the area and upgrade the quality of life of citizens, but also in supporting social structures for relief. Day by day, we lay the foundations for the Attica of the future. For a modern European Metropolitan District, with equal opportunities for all, with social cohesion, with no exclusion and exceptions. On this course, no citizen will be left behind, even at the most remote part of Attica. “

According to a press release, Mr. Chardalia’s reference to the coordinated effort made by the Region’s administration to take targeted initiatives for the wider area was particularly special. “We set a series of priorities with the mayors throughout the basin, launching all these projects that are very important to these areas. Our main concern in West Attica is to bring back the infrastructure by proving our respect for the citizen. We have an overall strategic plan, which we implement. That is why we are here, along with the municipal authorities, along with the Vice -Mayors, along with all active citizens. West Attica I think has received the message of our interest, but it will not only judge us by the interest, but by the end result. We aspire at the end of this beautiful trip, the things we have implemented not to have a comparable size with any other period, ”Mr Chardalias noted.

Mr. Chardalias started his visit from a day -to -day care center for people with disabilities, which has been operating since 2011 and is the only similar structure in the Municipality of Megara.

As the press release states: “The Regional Governor, accompanied by the Mayor of Megara Panagiotis Margetis, the Vice -Mayor of Western Attica Kleanthi Varela, the Vice -Mayor Beneficiaries of the Center, toured its premises and was informed of the services offered. “I would like to congratulate you on the work you are doing and your contribution to the beneficiaries and their families,” Mr Chardalias said to the staff of the structure, emphasizing the constant will of the Regional Authority to remain “next to you all of you, with your work to give us a flesh and bone.

The Center, which operates under the responsibility of the Disabled Megara Association, is funded by the Ministry of Social Cohesion and Family through the Attica Region, with an annual grant of 68,333 euros. It employs 15 beneficiaries daily and is staffed with appropriate specialties, such as a psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker, occupational therapist, speech therapist, nurse and more. The structure program applies a variety of programs such as environmental education, therapeutic contact with animals and art -focused actions, with the aim of developing skills and strengthening the creativity of beneficiaries.

Subsequently, the Regional Governor went to the City Hall, where the Convention with the contractor was signed by the Mayor of Megara. Under the contract, in the next twelve months, two 40 meters long on the beach will be built on the coastline, as well as slopes to support the coastal road about 300 meters. Also, the sidewalks and 300 meters long, as well as artificial sand replenishment will be restored on the beach that has been observed, 600 meters long.

According to the press release, Mayor Panagiotis Margetis praised the regional governor’s offer to successfully completion a project, which – as he pointed out – delayed several years due to bureaucratic obstacles and is now delivering to the citizens of the Greats, satisfying a request. “I want to be in the neighborhoods of Attica, so that step by step we can make our promise to be useful to society. We are delivering an important project today to the local community. But we do not do anyone, we owe the citizens to a better tomorrow, “said Chardalias, expressing his gratitude to the technical services of the Region and the Municipality, as he said” behind each contract signing, there is a lot of work, a lot of sweat, by the people who work behind it. “

Immediately afterwards, Mr. Chardalias was in the Akrogiali area of ​​Nea Peramos for the receipt by the contractor of the large flood protection project implemented in the area of ​​the Region, with a budget of € 5.6 million. It is the construction of a 6km rainwater drainage network as well as a new central collector, which replaced the inadequate existing. The project offers significant shielding of the area, which had repeatedly been affected by severe flooding, as the rainwater that had previously run on the adjacent streets are now led to the final recipients and from there to the sea, with a large part of the port of Nea.

“Our strategic planning for a safe, sustainable region, protected by the consequences of the climate crisis, concerns every corner of Attica,” the regional governor said, adding: “Today, we are delivering to citizens yet another large flood protection project, shielding an area that had been tested by the people. The Administration gives us priority to the 158 flood protection projects that will be implemented by the end of our current term, with 54 of them being auctioned immediately, within the first half of 2025. No delay, no oligarchy can fit into this great effort to protect our Attica. People want a result from us. It wants to be immediate, to complete what we undertake within specified timetables. We love West Attica and try to prove it in practice. “
