Haris Mamoulakis: The government’s commitments for the construction of the Panas junction are in vain

The inconsistency of government commitments for the Panas junction is highlighted by the Head of Infrastructure & Transport K.O. SYRIZA Progressive Alliance, Member of Parliament for Heraklion Haris Mamoulakis, submitting a related Question to the Minister of Infrastructure & Transport.

“Panasos is the only community along the entire route of N.E.O. Heraklion – Agioi Deka which is not served by a junction.

The village is in a peculiar hostage situation, since if the interchange was working, its distance from the urban centers of Heraklion and Moira would be much shorter and the route safer.” says Haris Mamoulakis in his statement, emphasizing: “What is the reason for the delay and non-compliance with the government’s commitments regarding the tendering of the project? Has the study stage been completed? What specific studies have been omitted? Have the tender documents been drawn up?

When will they be published? What is the total estimated budget of the project and how will it be financed? Has its funding been secured? What is the tendering schedule for the project? When do you expect the construction phase to be completed and the project delivered? The Minister must apologize to the local community.”

The Question refers to the history of the axis connecting Heraklion – Moira and the contribution of the SYRIZA Government to its construction, while it is emphasized that the lack of the junction leads the traffic of all vehicles – including heavy vehicles – through other villages (Gergeri – Nivryto), from the old Panas – Agia Varvara road network, with this

it implies in terms of danger, roadway landslides, etc. It is also recalled that in the debate of September 26, 2022 in the Parliament, the then Deputy Minister of Infrastructure & Transport committed that within the next 4 to 6 months the rainwater runoff, flood protection studies would have been completed, as and the supporting studies and the 20 to 25 million euro contract tender would take place.
