Traffic and the city
Even if the Greek capital had the best traffic police force in the world and even if it had smart cameras installed everywhere, the problem of traffic congestion would not be solved.
There is simply too much traffic in Athens and this means that we need to rethink the subject from the start. This does not just include expanding and improving public transportation; it also means much more effective measures to discourage car use.
Interventions to this end have been incomplete and fragmented so far.
