Interim Transport Minister Radu Miruță announced the opening of the Zimbor – Poarta Sălajului segment of the A3 highway on August 10, 2026. This decision follows discussions with CNAIR's director and the contractor, UMB, amid controversies regarding the segment's delayed opening despite its completion. Miruță rejected a partial acceptance of the segment without the necessary interchanges, emphasizing that both must be operational for traffic. The contractor assured that the reception and opening would occur simultaneously. The announcement follows a public exchange between CNAIR's director and a state secretary, highlighting differing views on the segment's readiness.
