The first results of MyStreet — a modern digital tool designed to help citizens play an active role in keeping public spaces orderly — were presented to the Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, during a meeting at Maximos Mansion, on Wednesday, August 27.
Beyond offering practical information such as parking spots, electric vehicle charging stations, and the locations of defibrillators, the MyStreet app also allows users to report violations they encounter in public spaces.
During the meeting, Mitsotakis stressed the need for cooperation across municipalities, urging them to integrate their data into the platform to make the app more effective. He also expressed the hope that additional useful information will be included in future updates, such as accessible ramps for people with disabilities, more detailed listings of defibrillators, and designated emergency gathering points.
The MyStreet app is available for download on smartphones and tablets.
What the App Offers
Through interactive maps, users can access a wide range of services and information, including:
• Public spaces: Details on active leases, including surface area, duration, and boundaries of the allocated area.
• EV charging points: Locations of available chargers, complete with provider details and charging capacity.
• Emergency gathering points: Clearly marked safe zones in case of natural disasters or other emergencies.
Coming soon: information on accessible parking spots for people with disabilities and the locations of installed defibrillators.
How to File a Report
If a user wishes to file a complaint, they simply select the relevant type of violation from a list — for example, excessive use of public space by cafés and restaurants, or blocked wheelchair access. They may also add an optional description in the comments field.
Once the form is completed, users can decide whether to submit the report anonymously or under their name.
In the 20 days since the app was launched, 5,736 registered allocations have been recorded across 60 municipalities, while 9,381 citizens have downloaded the app and 1,273 complaints have been filed.
