50%, or half of its route, has already been covered by one of the two metro modules that are constructing line 4 of the Athens Metro for the AVAX GHELLA ALSTOM consortium.

The Athena, a state-of-the-art Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) that began construction from Katehaki and is currently constructing a 5 km tunnel to Evangelism, has achieved a milestone of 2.5 km, or 50% of its route.

In particular, it has already passed under the station "Goudi," has left behind the station "Zografou," and in a few days it will reach the third station, which is the station "Ilisia.".

The second AVAX metro module, "Niki," which started in the summer from the Veikou Grove and followed the opposite direction, has already constructed a 750-meter tunnel, passing under the station "Veikou Grove" and heading towards the second station in the series, which is the station "Galatsy.".

"The construction progress confirms the Group's great potential in demanding projects, as within 2026 the 12.5 km long tunnel of line 4 of the Athens Metro will be a reality," Group executives point out.
