Big protest rallies will cause all kind of traffic jams in the streets of downtown Athens.

All other transport means, incl the urban train HSAP, will stand still!
So, keep an eye for Updates!
Indignant Greeks have called people to come down to Syntagma Square and join the crowds in front of the Parliament already on Tuesday morning. They plan to ‘blockade’ the Parliament on Thursday. They also call motorists to cause traffic jams and so hinder lawmakers from entering the Parliament.

Traffic jams – some PASOK members may indeed be looking for good excuse not to vote at all, not sure them not voting is good or bad though. Greek people, your’e not alone.
