The modernization of the Bucharest-Giurgiu railway, Romania's first railway, is currently at 22% completion. Originally opened in 1869, the line has faced delays since a bridge collapse in 2005. The ongoing project, costing 2.1 billion lei, aims to enhance speed and safety, with completion expected by September 2028. Works include electrification, platform construction, and infrastructure upgrades despite adverse weather conditions. The project is being executed by RailWorks, comprising Arcada Company and Alstom Transport.
