Deputy Minister Dimas highlighted Greece's growing role in new EU commercial transport corridors, which form part of a broader push to modernize roads, ports, and logistics networks. For visitors to Crete, this means ongoing and upcoming construction activity near key transport routes, particularly around the eastern part of the island where the BOAK highway project continues to develop.
