Driving on the new highway from Kalamata to Athens and also part of old national road. Crossing the new Tsakona bridge at 4:20.

It's done? I drove from Athens to Kalamata 2 years ago and it took ages. Could've had something to do with the fact that you have to stop every 5 seconds to pay toll though.....

Lovely road though. The many bikers I saw (who removed their plates and then went to see how fast they could ride) loved it too. smile

Yeap, all completed this year I think. Also, the highway to Sparti is also done. Amazing road. Indeed, lots of tolls but I skip one by taking the old national road, which is an amazing drive (check the last 6 mins of the clip.)
