I bet my roof will be in the obstacle plain.
I have seen “tourists” blown away there by jet blast.
I've been to Skiathos many times, The road is necessary to link properties and businesses who are on that side of the Island. There are traffic lights in operation on the road by 01 runway threshold, but they are completely ignored by the locals.
As for the tourists, yes many have been blown across the road by the jet blast, last year someone was badly injured after being thrown onto the rocks in the bay and had to be transported to the mainland for urgent medical treatment.
