OSE and the Athenian Proastiakos suburban railway trains will not be running in protest over an infrastructure, transport and networks ministry bill on the reorganisation and development of OSE.
On Oct. 25th, 26th, 27th and 29th access to Athens International Airport via public transport will be possible only by bus.
