The National Company for Road Investments (CNIR) has received seven bids for the preparation of documentation related to the expropriation process for the Focșani–Brăila Expressway. The estimated contract value is 14 million lei, excluding VAT, with a duration of 19 months. The services are required for acquiring 3,632 properties along the route, primarily private lands totaling approximately 8.5 million square meters. The expropriation procedures affect several localities in Vrancea and Brăila counties. The government approved the expropriation process in June 2026, with compensation estimated at 36 million lei. The expressway will feature six interchanges and various structures, linking major roads and ensuring connectivity to other regions. The overall project cost is around 4.29 billion lei, funded through the Transport Program 2021–2027, and is currently in the design phase.
