Abstract

A disruption to Athens metro service due to simultaneous malevolent attacks in metro lines 2 and 3 is examined in this paper. The directly impacted area is part of the metro network outside the central metro ring defined by interchange stations Syntagma, Monastiraki, Omonia and Attiki, where detours are not possible. The area covers metro sections in the western part of Athens where the population is more transit dependent. The Strategic Transport Model of Attiko Metro (AM) has been used to assess the consequences in case no alternative transport is provided and in case of bus bridging provision.
