Greece to Install 1,400 Traffic Cameras by 2026 to Enhance Road Safety
The Greek government plans to install 1,400 traffic cameras at traffic lights by 2026, with the first 388 set to be operational in 2025. This initiative aims to improve road safety and enforce stricter regulations, particularly for electric scooters and bikes. The new Traffic Code will lower speed limits to 30 km/h in urban areas, emphasizing responsible vehicle use and pedestrian rights. Additionally, measures to detect uninsured vehicles are in the works. Authorities emphasize the need for shared responsibility among drivers to reduce accidents and promote public transport use.
