Based on the planning announced by the Minister of PEHODE, Mr. George Souflias last February, on June 7th 2006 Metro Line 3 extension to the western suburbs of Athens, from Aghia Marina (Haidari) to Piraeus, which concerns the construction of an underground tunnel 8,2 km long and the creation of 7 new Metro stations, was put to tender.

These consortia\/companies will be evaluated by ATTIKO METRO by the end of the year, in compliance with the criteria set in the Tender Documents and those preselected will be invited at the second stage of the Tender to submit a Financial Offer for the project.<\/p>\n
METRO EXTENSION TO PIRAEUS<\/strong><\/p>\n The starting point of the Metro new extension to the Western Suburbs will be AGHIA MARINA (HAIDARI) Station and its terminal EVANGELISTRIA Station at Piraeus, with 7 new Stations; the underground tunnel will be 8,2 km long.
