The 2018 Report is extremely important to us, as 2018 signals the operational completion of our project, and during this year: A) Both the construction and the full operation of the Ionia Odos motorway have been completed, a project linking 2 Regions, 4 prefectures and 10 Municipalities, giving a boost to development not only in Western Greece and Epirus, but in the whole country, B) Significant infrastructure upgrade projects have also been designed, implemented and completed at the A.TH.E Motorway section from Metamorphosis in Attica to Scarfia, a section we operate, maintain and manage. During the first year of the full operation of the motorways - with 500 employees in management and operation, with more than 350 kilometres of modern, safe motorways in 7 prefectures of our country with a multitude of local communities - we incorporated in our daily operations actions, activities and programs we had designed, aiming at supporting and implementing the key strategic and development pillars of our company for the upcoming years. -

Palaeotectonic Environment and Landslide Phenomena in the Area of Malakasa, Greece

Due to this failure, railway line and highway connection between Athens and central and North Greece were cut off. In this paper, it is attempted to approach the landslide mechanism based on: (i) the ki- nematic data on the failure surface, (ii) the morphological features of the surface, (iii) the movement vectors, and (iv) the lithostratigraphy and hydro-geological fea- tures of the sliding mass. According to the above criteria, three soil blocks can be identified in the landslide mass, which are differentiated by their lithological struc- ture, kinematic features, type of deformation and hydro-geological behavior. The causal factor of the extended landslide was the gradual loss of support of these three blocks and their slide on a pre-sheared surface of low strength that has been caused by the extended excavation in the slope toe. The palaeotectonic structure and the de- velopment and geometry of the geological formations in the landslide area were not taken into account during the construction of the drainage works, for slope stabili- zation and the increasing of safety factor, something which led to the over-designing of the remedial measures. -

During the last decades, the mostly unplanned urban growth and massive housing construction have favoured a slow evolution towards a less compact and mono-centric spatial asset, typical of several Mediterranean cities. Despite efforts to guide urban growth, a series of structural challenges have remained: (i) a gap between planning and implementation; (ii) a gap between spatial planning and socio-economic planning; (iii) a relevant pressure on natural environment; (iv) a lack of participatory planning. -
The June 4, 2001 Fire in the Wildland Urban Interface Areas of Northern Attica: Evolution, Firefighting Problems and Damages
The June 4, 2001 fire in the wildland urban interface areas of Northern Attica: Evolution, firefighting problems and damages. G. Xanthopoulos1, C. Labris2, and C. Golfinos2 1National Agricultural Research Foundation Institute of Mediterranean Forest Ecosystems and Forest Products Technology Terma Alkmanos, Ilisia, 115 28 Athens, Greece Phone: ++30 210 7793142, Fax: ++30 210 7784602, e-mail: [email protected] 2Fire Corps Headquarters Direction of Forest Fire Fighting 4 Mourouzi str., 10554 Athens, Greece Keywords: wildland-urban interface, fire fighting, fire damage Abstract One of the most recent significant wildfires in a wildland-urban interface in Greece occurred in Northern Attica, north of Athens, Greece, that includes the towns of Sikaminos, Milesi, Oropos, Markopoulo, and Kalamos. The fire erupted in the afternoon of June 4, 2001 under strong winds associated with the passage of a cold front. It burned in a similar pattern to previous fires in the same area, in many parts burning Pinus halepensis forest under regeneration, while olive groves and other agricultural cultivations were also found in its path. Its fast rate of spread in combination with the need to protect homes, which absorbed a lot of firefighting effort, increased the burned area quickly. The fire slowed down with the onset of the night as the wind speed decreased and the fuels started picking-up moisture. It was controlled completely in the morning of the next day under favorable conditions by the strong firefighting forces that in the meantime had arrived in the area. In this paper the behavior of the fire and the firefighting efforts are described, discussed and compared to past similar fires in the same area. -
