The Corinth Canal in Greece has reopened to maritime traffic after more than six months of repair work, including the removal of landslides and rockfalls. The canal, which connects the Corinthian and Saronic Gulfs, was closed in October 2025 for maintenance. According to the managing company, most of the reinforcement and stabilization work along the canal banks has been completed. The reopening comes a month earlier than initially expected. The canal, built between 1881 and 1893, is no longer suitable for most modern commercial ships due to its narrow width and limited depth.
