Traffic is moving at low speeds from the Corinth Canal up to Agioi Theodoroi. Congestion is also reported from Kineta to Nea Peramos, while delays are recorded along Athens Avenue from Skaramagas to Dafni and in Haidari.

However, road conditions are not as severe as those faced by drivers returning on Monday, when queues stretched up to 50 kilometers in Kineta.

On the Athens–Lamia National Road, delays persist due to a two-car accident earlier in the day, combined with increased return traffic. In particular, vehicles are moving slowly from Nea Erythraia to Nea Filadelfeia.

At the same time, traffic is also heavy on the Attiki Odos, especially at the exit toward Kifisos.

According to traffic police data, from 6:00 a.m. on Monday (April 13) until 6:00 p.m., a total of 70,697 vehicles returned to Attica—37,725 via the Athens–Corinth highway and 32,972 via the Athens–Lamia route.
