Generalized Map Uses: Athens Metropolitan Area

The Metro Development Study is aimed at long-term planning of the Metro System for the Athens Metropolitan Area. The Metro System—seen within the framework of an integrated public transport system that incorporates all means of continuously interacting transport including private means—plays a significant role in the strategic plan of the study area.

A suitable transportation model was developed for strategic planning purposes. It assists in developing and testing alternative scenarios for Metro System extensions that forecast future transport demand. These are defined by socioeconomic characteristics, land-use distribution, and supply needs according to the characteristics of the public transport system and private means.
