Line 4 of the Athens Metro is a future line that will run from Template:OASA Metro stations to Template:OASA Metro stations. Construction of the line was approved on 25 September 2014 and it is scheduled to begin in 2016. Operation of the line will start in the beginning of 2023.

Line 4 has been under consideration for many years and apart from that, it has also been a promise of most politicians. Its exact route was changed multiple times. One of the most famous routes was the U-shaped line from Template:OASA Metro stations to Template:OASA Metro stations (which are current stations of lines 1 and 3 respectively), including a branch to Vyronas. However, the route from Alsos Veikou to Goudi was chosen, as it has the benefit of being the one passing from the densely populated areas of central Athens, like Galatsi, Exarheia, Kolonaki, Kaisariani and Zografou.

In the long future, it will be extender further north to Ethniki Odos and to other important suburbs of Athens, like Marousi.
