The Aleșd bypass project, promoted by Ilie Bolojan, faces legal challenges after the Oradea Court of Appeal annulled the environmental document issued in 2021. Despite the road being operational, its legality is under scrutiny, with residents contesting the construction authorization and expropriations. The court's decision may impact ongoing lawsuits regarding the bypass's construction permit and government approval for expropriations. The project, initially planned to be 16.8 km long, was shortened to 5.85 km, affecting residential areas. The annulment raises concerns about the project's compliance with EU funding regulations, as non-compliance could lead to financial penalties.
