The Ruia reservoir in Poiana Brașov will undergo significant expansion, funded by the local municipality at an estimated cost of 11.39 million lei. This expansion is necessary to meet increasing water demands for ski area rehabilitation and expansion. The project involves raising the dam's crown by 3 meters and constructing a 2-meter support wall, avoiding the need to relocate the pumping station. The entire project is expected to take 5 months, increasing the reservoir's capacity by 50,000 cubic meters to a total of 176,400 cubic meters.
