Changes to Bus Services by OASA
As part of the Strategic Transport Plan, the Athens Urban Transport Organization (OASA) is also preparing significant changes to city bus routes, set to be completed by May 2025. This plan aims to enhance the overall quality of passenger travel.
The organization’s goal is to redefine the capital’s transport system over the next two decades, focusing on seamless integration across public transport modes—buses, trolleys, metro, tram, and suburban railway—so that they complement each other according to the actual travel needs of Athens residents.
