INTERVIU. Numărătoarea inversă. La 19 ani de la aderarea la UE, autostrada care va lega Bucureștiul de Vestul Europei intră într-o etapă decisivă. „Va fi ceva ca în Alpi, o imagine spectaculoasă”

The Sibiu-Pitești highway, crucial for connecting Bucharest to Western Europe, is entering a decisive phase with significant progress expected by 2026. Key moments include finalizing environmental approvals and starting construction across all sections. Despite past delays and discrepancies in planning, the project is now backed by experienced contractors. The completion is realistically projected for 2030, with challenges anticipated in the mountainous areas, particularly on the Olt Valley, where multiple tunnels are being constructed. The project is seen as vital for Romania's infrastructure and economic development.
