From Ancient Routes to Modern Marvels: Discover the Rio-Antirrio Strait The Patras Bridge (Rio-Antirrio Bridge) is located at the strait of Rio-Antirrio, at the transition between the Gulf of Patras and the Gulf of Corinth. The first person to officially cross the Rio-Antirrio Bridge was a torchbearer as part of the Olympic Torch Relay for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The Rio-Antirrio Bridge is one of the world’s longest multi-span cable-stayed bridges. • It connects the Peloponnese peninsula (Rio) with mainland Greece (Antirrio), near the city of Patras. • Officially opened in August 2004, just before the Athens Olympic Games. • Named after Charilaos Trikoupis, a 19th-century Greek Prime Minister who first proposed the idea of such a bridge.
At the request of Her Majesty's Coastguard, where possible, during daylight hours during the summer, leisure boaters in England should avoid using VHF channel 16 for routine radio checks. Instead, call one of the 56 lookout stations of the National Coastwatch Institution on VHF Ch 65. They can also give you forecast and live weather reports, as well as check your AIS is working. #SHORTS https://www.nci.org.uk/ A voluntary organisation keeping a visual watch along UK shores
