Road maintenance work is currently underway along the route between Makry Gialos and Lithines in the Lasithi regional unit, eastern Crete. The Region of Crete is carrying out slope and drainage ditch cleaning along this stretch as part of its preventive infrastructure maintenance program.
Travelers driving between Makry Gialos, a popular coastal resort on the south coast, and the inland village of Lithines should expect possible delays or lane restrictions while work is in progress. The cleaning of slopes and ditches is a routine safety measure aimed at preventing rockfalls and flooding, particularly ahead of the summer season and potential heavy rainfall periods.
If you plan to drive this route, allow extra travel time and follow any temporary signage or instructions from road crews on site.
