Although it passes through both rugged mountainous and lowland terrain, it has no tunnels or valley bridges (except for some on the new National Road). The [[Vrachasi]] tunnel was the first tunnel built on the National Road in Greece in 1971 on the new road but there is also a 200 m. long tunnel in [[Greek National Road 5|national road 5]] near Kleisoura that may is even older.
