Upon completion of his visit in EFKLIDIS Station worksite area, Mr. Ioannis Economidis made the following statements: \u201cThe progress in all Metro fronts is currently quite satisfactory, while both Tunnel Boring Machines are constructing the project tunnels at an intensive pace. Thessaloniki Metro constitutes a 1.5 billion \u20ac investment that will drastically enhance the city of Thessaloniki\u201d.<\/p>\n
Further on, Mr. Christos Tsitouras, Chairman of ATTIKO METRO S.A., underlined that: \u201cProjects of national magnitude, such as the \u201cThessaloniki Metro\u201d, should be kept away from \u201cpetty politics\u201d, since, in any other case it is the citizens and the national economy who will suffer all adverse consequences.
