Tripoli Highway Now Named "Mikis Theodorakis" Motorway

The Tripoli city council, Arcadia prefecture, Peloponnese decided to name a motorway of the city's new ring road after renowned Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis. The decision was taken after a proposal by mayor Yiannis Smyrniotis to honour the Greek composer who lived in Tripoli and Arcadia over a large part of his life and produced considerable music work during the period. The unveiling of the name of the city's new motorway is scheduled to take place on Monday in a unique event.
