The company expects to deliver the project in September, significantly ahead of the original schedule, which had set February 2027 as the completion date.<\/p>\n
Workers have already completed the most heavily used sections of the network between Sepolia and Dafni stations and between Syntagma and Ethniki Amyna. The completed works are expected to further improve the reliability and quality of Metro services.<\/p>\n
Since the project began in November 2025, crews have replaced 29.4 kilometres of rails as of August 6, 2026. They have also carried out 1,950 welds and ultrasonic inspections to ensure the quality and durability of the new track infrastructure.<\/p>\n
The remaining works cover the final section between Monastiraki and Kerameikos stations and are scheduled for September.<\/p>\n
At the same time, STASY is awaiting approval from the Court of Audit to expand the project and replace an additional 7.3 kilometres of rails.<\/p>\n
STASY described the project as the largest upgrade of the track infrastructure on Lines 2 and 3 since the Athens Metro began operating. The project has a total budget of \u20ac7.3 million and forms part of the network\u2019s preventive maintenance and targeted upgrade programme, with the aim of maintaining high standards of safety, reliability and operational availability.<\/p>\n
