In this episode of Greek News in English, Luca and Lane explore Greece's urgent challenge regarding elevator certification deadlines set for June 2025. They discuss how thousands of apartment buildings risk losing functional elevators or facing heavy fines due to bureaucratic obstacles, lack of official data on elevators' numbers and conditions, limited inspection capacity, inactive electronic registries, and absence of government subsidies for costly upgrades. The hosts highlight calls from federations representing property owners and technicians urging deadline extensions and realistic implementation plans amid administrative shortcomings. This episode sheds light on regulatory enforcement gaps impacting public safety infrastructure across Greece.
