Greece: 1 scheme to know about before you drive in.
Vasilika has one driving restriction on our books: the Κυκλοφοριακές ρυθμίσεις για την περιοδική πεζοδρόμηση στην Άνω Αγορά… (limited traffic zone). What is a limited traffic zone?

Vasilika is a village in the south of Lesbos, inland from the Gulf of Kalloni, and for four months of the year its upper market square closes to traffic in the evening — and on Sundays from mid-morning. From 1 June to 30 September the Άνω Αγορά is a pedestrian street from 20:30 until 02:00, and on Sundays from 10:00 until 02:00.
The rule is clause Γ) of a decision of the Αποκεντρωμένη Διοίκηση Αιγαίου, signed at Piraeus on 18 July 2025 and gazetted on 28 July 2025, approving decision 101/2025 of the municipal council of Δήμος Δυτικής Λέσβου. 🔑 The Sunday clause is what makes this record worth having: it is the only Greek closure in this corpus that distinguishes one weekday from the rest, and it does so by opening ten and a half hours earlier.
Every other Greek scheme here names a single window and lets it run every day. ⚠️ Vasilika is a village rather than a resort, and this page does not pretend otherwise — it is here because the act is complete, the extent is signed at eight surveyed points, and a driver crossing southern Lesbos on a Sunday afternoon has no other way to learn that the square is shut. 🔑 This gazette item carries three settlements of one municipality — Vasilika, Skala Kallonis and Mithymna — each its own record here.
