The first sections of Autostrada Moldovei (A7) will be put into circulation this year.
The announcement was made by the Minister of Transport, Sorin Grindeanu, who visited the construction site of the Buzău – Focșani highway.
The Moldova highway (A7) opens this year
In the middle of October, Lots 1, 2 and 4 of Autostrada Moldovei (A7) will be opened to traffic. And the bridge and lot 3 will be ready at the end of November, said the Minister of Transport, Sorin Grindeanu.
„Of these 4 lots, the 4 lots between Buzău and Focșani are at 82% average. Therefore, batch 1 and 2 and batch 4 will be put into circulation in mid-October. The bridge and lot 3 sometime at the end of November. The 82 km between Buzău and Focșani will be used this autumn”, said Sorin Grindeanu, quoted by economedia.ro.
Therefore, Romanians could travel on the Moldavian Highway this year, if the works progress according to the schedule. But not all 80 kilometers between Buzău and Focșani.
What does the Buzău – Focșani highway look like?
The Buzău – Focșani highway is divided into 4 lots.
Lot 1, Buzău – Vadu Pașii, has a total length of 4.6 km and approximately 8 km of connecting road. The segment will have a road junction and 4 bridges and overpasses. Of these, one will cross the Buzau River and will be the second longest in Romania, approximately 1.3 km.
Lot 2, Vadu Pașii – Râmnicu Sărat, has a length of approximately 31 kilometers and is largely completed.
On Lot 3, Râmnicu Sărat – Mândrești Munteni, with a length of 36.1 km, 18 bridges and a passage must be built. The most complicated work is the 380 m bridge over the DJ 205R and the Râmna stream.
Lot 4 Mândrești Munteni – Focșani Nord is known as the “Focșani hump”, with 10.9 km of highway. Connecting roads with DN2 and DN2D are added to this section. The builder must arrange 6 bridges and a passage, as well as 2 road junctions. The link road to the A7 will be demarcated with New Jersey type parapets.
Asociația Construim Romania (ASCOR) filmed what the four lots of the A7 highway look like now. The clips have been uploaded to ASCOR’s YouTube channel.
