The city and the district has been planning a bridge which will connect traffic between Preveza and [[Thesprotia prefecture|Thesprotia]] and [[Lefkada]] and western Aetolia in [[Aitoloakarnania prefecture]] because the ferry route is short.

==History==

In the mid to late [[1990s]], the construction of the bypass of [[Greece Interstate 5|GR-5]]/[[E55]] began and was opened several years later along with a stretch of [[Greece Interstate 21|GR-21]].

A day after the (East) Attica fire on [[July 2005|July 29, 2005]], the Monolithi fire began at around the late-day hours consuming a campground site as fires consumed forests near a campground sparking huge flames. People began to use pails and hoses to put out that outrageous fire to avoid seeing the campsite in complete destruction of flames. Properties in Monolithi were also consumed as part of the population lost their homes and some buildings. The fire lasted for a couple of hours.
