Hello and welcome to the stunning footage of the New Metro of Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece.

On November 30th, 2024, the highly anticipated Thessaloniki Metro officially opened, marking a significant milestone in the city's transportation infrastructure. This new metro system is designed to alleviate traffic congestion, reduce pollution, and improve overall mobility in the northern Greek city. The first phase of the project, which includes the operation of 13 stations along the 9.6-kilometer central section, connects key areas of Thessaloniki, including the city center, the University of Macedonia, and the railway station.

The new metro promises to transform the daily commute for thousands of residents and visitors, offering a fast and reliable alternative to road transport. The trains are modern, without drivers (Automatic), air-conditioned, and equipped with state-of-the-art technology, providing both comfort and efficiency. Additionally, the metro’s sleek stations incorporate a mix of contemporary design with archaeological findings, celebrating Thessaloniki’s rich history.

The Thessaloniki Metro project has been a long-awaited development for the city, with construction delays and challenges spanning over several years. However, its completion is expected to have a profound impact on the city's urban development, helping to reduce pollution, enhance public transportation access, and provide a more sustainable alternative for daily commuters. Future phases of the project will extend the metro network, further improving connectivity across the region.

If I may, I would like to give you the meaning of each Station name.

1. NEA ELVETIA = New Switzerland. Name given to a grove (small forest) nearby with a breeze climate.

2. VOULGARI = BULGARI. A Greek Politician from the same family tree as the jewel makers.

3. 25TH MARTIOU = The day Greek revolution against the Ottoman Empire started.

4. ANALIPSI = Ascension (of the Lord Jesus Christ), from the nearby Church of Ascension.

5. FLEMING = Fleming. From the Scottish pharmacist Alexander Fleming, Nobel Price winner of Penicillin.

6. EFKLIDIS = EFKLIDIS. From the Greek Geometer Euclid inventor of Euclidean Geometry.

7. PAPAFI = PAPAFI. A Greek merchant and philanthropist who build an orphanage institute in close proximity.

8. PANEPISTIMIO = Literally means University, from the Aristotle University in proximity.

9. SINTRIVANI = FOUNTAIN. From the monumental fountain that exists in proximity.

10. AGIAS SOPHIAS = Holly Wisdom. From the Church of Holy Wisdom in close proximity.

11. VENIZELOU = VENIZELOU, the name of a Greek respectful politician.

12. DIMOCRATIAS = DEMOCRACY. From the name of the square above the Station.

13. NEOS SIDIRODROMIKOS STATMOS = New Railway Station. Well we knew that nobody could pronounce that, so we translated it directly to English. Its the only station that has both a Greek and an English name.

Thanks for reading me.

I just rode this line from one end to the other. It is absolutely stunning. The archaeological exhibits in the stations are outstanding and people are clustered around each, looking quietly in awe at the evidence of 9 meters of civilizations below our feet. The coaches are smooth and quiet. Each station is a work of art inside.
