A pedestrian bridge is to be constructed alongside the road bridge at Skoutelonas on the old national road near Kamisiana, where the road narrows and there is no pavement for pedestrians. As the Deputy Regional Governor for Chania Nikos Kalogeris pointed out to a NeaTV reporter, this is an area much frequented by tourists in the summer as there are many hotels along the beach front. Families with beach gear and pushing infants in baby carriages can regularly be seen negotiating the bridge in summer, sharing the road with buses and cars, and there have been a number of minor accidents. A solution to the problem has been a long-standing demand of local residents and hotels.
