Pilot project to test road surface in a tunnel
On the Olympia Odos motorway (VINCI Highways/VINCI Concessions), in the Theseus tunnel in the Athens direction, a pilot project is to test the effectiveness of a lightcoloured road surface as regards improving visibility and limiting energy consumption, notably by reducing the need for lighting.
If the experiment proves successful, as it already has been in numerous structures in Germany, Austria and France, this solution will then be used in other Olympia Odos tunnels.
