Motorway 12 is an extension of Motorway 1 towards the city of Volos and it is also used as a Ring Road of the city. Even though, it has two lanes of direction, there are parts with traffic lights and not all of its parts are under the motorway standards. There are still upgrade works on the road.
Volos' Ring Road
Volos Ring Road begins in Dimini and ends in Agria, crossing the city of Volos. It crosses Nea Ionia from north in the neighborhoods of Hiliadou and Kallithea. Even not all of the initial plan of the Ring Road is not completed yet, it had made driving in the city easier, reducing the needed time, for everyone who wants to drive out of the city, avoiding the traffic jam in the city center. Nowadays the Ring Road of Volos begins in the end of Larisa Street and ends in Agria village.
