Panagopoula tunnel breakthrough
The Panagopoula Tunnel (Greek: Σήραγγα Παναγοπούλας) is a tunnel on the Corinth-Patras section of the Olympia Odos motorway. Works began in 2008 along with the whole motorway, but they were halted in 2011. They were again resumed in early 2014. It will be the longest road tunnel of the whole motorway and the third longest in Greece. It was opened to traffic in late February 2017, a month earlier than the rest of the motorway.
