First Interventions for the improvement of structures (passages) of the section “Siatista – Koromilia” of the Egnatia Motorway, Greece
EGNATIA ODOS S.A. has started implementing the interventions on the motorway section “Siatista – Koromilia” (Action C.2), after the completion of evaluation of the structures (Action A.4), as for their use by wild fauna for crossing the motorway.
The interventions are mainly:
- Planting around the entrances of structures, to create an attractive environment for animals
- Pruning and debris removal, to facilitate animal crossings
- Construction of “dry corridors” or ramps inside the structures
- Light-screens for light protection of structure entrances
- Existing fencing corrections, to prevent animals from entering the motorway, or facilitate their escape from it
The first interventions concern existing fencing corrections.
The project is partially co-funded
