- The part of Aghias Sofias Street between Egnatia and A. Keramopoulou Streets is converted into a one-way Street, heading towards A. Keramopoulou Street.
- Platonos Street is once more rendered to the vehicular circulation.
- At the northern section of the station, the pedestrian traffic shall be served, temporarily and for as long as it is feasible due to the prevailing conditions, by a pedestrian passage through the worksite area while, at a subsequent phase, provision has been made for the construction of a pedestrian bridge.
Throughout the execution of construction works, the work crews of the Contracting Joint Venture shall make all possible efforts to serve the adjacent businesses.
