The successful completion of the difficult negotiations with the European Commission was announced by the Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Costas Karamanlis in yesterday’s teleconference meeting of the board of the Piraeus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (EVEP), which was also attended by Deputy Regional Governor Piraeus and Piraeus Piraeus.

According to the announcement of Chamber, twelve points of the contract are under review, a fact that will lead to the progress of the Thriasio Freight Center, better known as Thriasio I. The aim is for the revised contract to be approved by the Court of Auditors, to be ratified again by the Parliament and to be signed in the Autumn in order to start the emblematic work.

It should be reminded that the contract for the THEK between GAIAOSE and the ETVA VIPE-Goldair scheme has been signed since 2018 but has not yet been approved by the Commission, with the result that the ambitious project cannot start the 120 million euro projects it has undertaken by Mytilineos.

Mr. Caramanlis, according to the post of EVEP, stressed that the main priority is the development of the freight center of Piraeus to follow the development of others that are in the planning in relation to the improvement of the speeds of the railways.
