Three executives from “Attiki Odos,” the company managing the Attica Motorway in Greece, have received ten-month suspended prison sentences related to the severe disruption caused by the “Elpis” winter storm in 2022. The sentencing stems from the prolonged stranding of motorists on the motorway during heavy snowfall. The court found the executives responsible for failures in preparedness and response to the extreme weather conditions. The sentences are suspended for three years, meaning the executives will not serve time unless they commit further offenses. The incident sparked public outrage and raised questions about infrastructure resilience and emergency management in Greece. The ruling marks the first legal consequence for those involved in the widely criticized event.
