[01] Car-Free Day 2008
Public transport will be free for all commuters on Monday, as Greece
takes part in the European Car-Free Day 2008.
A series of events is also scheduled throughout the country, including
a main event in central Syntagma Square in Athens organized by the
transport and communications ministry.
The purpose of the events is to brief the public and increase awareness
on commuting on public transport as a way of contributing substantially
to reducing atmospheric pollution and environmental protection.
The Syntagma events will wind up with a live concert by the group
Alchimistes (Alchemists) in the evening.
