Evangelismos metro station

When an Athenian's gaze encounters a cluster of buildings that display uniform architectural elements, they will likely pause, trained as they are in the heterogeneous visual clutter of the city. This will also happen to the visitor who perhaps disembarks at Evangelismos metro station and walks for a few hundred meters with their back to Lycabettus Hill.

Infrastructure and Transport Minister Christos Staikouras and his deputy, Nikos Tachiaos, visited the Katechaki and Veikou tunnel boring sites on the under-construction Line 4 of the Athens Metro on Monday and confirmed that the first section of the extension is expected to be completed by 2030.

People look at designs of future Athens metro stations. Closing the matter once and for all regarding the construction of the Evangelismos station on Line 4 of the metro at Rizari park in central Athens, Deputy Minister of Infrastructure Nikos Tachias stressed on Wednesday that work will start and progress as it did with Exarchia. "No metro station will be abandoned," he said.

Hellenic Metro will have to conduct a study to minimize the impact on Rizari Park by the construction of the Evangelismos station on Line 4 because the required technical environmental study it submitted last April has not been approved, according to a ruling by the Council of State.

The Council of State has upheld a petition to suspend work on Evangelismos station of the Athens metro's extension until a proper technical and environmental impact report is filed.
