The expansion of the Bucharest Ring Road to four lanes has faced delays due to design issues and utility relocations. The new contractor, Maristar – Hydrostroy – Patstroy VDH, took over in November 2025, with the project at about 21% completion. CNAIR's director, Cristian Pistol, noted that the contractor has been asked to increase workforce to recover lost time. The project, which spans approximately 11.5 kilometers, was initially stalled due to the insolvency of the first contractor. The updated completion date is set for March 23, 2027, but further extensions may occur depending on ongoing claims. Additionally, the modernization of another section of the ring road is set to be re-tendered once documentation is complete.
