• Our city has rivers which are not exploited as recreation areas. Do you know if our municipality is planning a plan for these rivers

Journalist's reply:

"It is true that, in my personal opinion, Veria has abandoned its rivers. There is very small use of both Tripotamos and Aliakmonas rivers. One example is the city of Trikala, which is crossed by a river, as the Tripotamos river crosses  Veria. There, the municipality has formed wonderful places, something that could be done in Veria too, not only for tourists, but for the residents of the city. There is no actual utilization of rivers is the answer.

The water was spotless at the end of the cleaning.
