Planning a vacation in Greece? Brace yourself for another two years of hell on the road to Halkidiki! The flyover construction near Thessaloniki, ongoing for almost two years, is slowing traffic down despite better passability than last year. With only 20-25% of the massive 13.5 km project completed, including 9 junctions, 3 tunnels, and 8 bridges, drivers still fear traffic jams, especially during the season. An average speed of 80 km/h on the main section is a bright spot, but don’t be fooled — the works will last at least two more years! If you’re planning a trip, start early, follow apps, and prepare for patience. Who said vacation has to be relaxing? Comment if you’ve already driven this route or have tips to dodge the traffic madness!
