The motorway serves parts of eastern Athens, and planning is underway to extend it to the southern suburbs with a tunnel following Mount Hymettus to Elliniko, and it would ebd at Vouliagmenis Avenue. Another extension from the north-east end will extend further eastwards to the port of Rafina.[1]
History edit
On 4 December 2015, the Greek government proposed to renumber the A64 as the A62:[2] In practice, the renumbering did not take place, because road signs still show the motorway as the A64.
