Romania to hold auction for highway constructors

The Romanian Transport Ministry will organize an auction at the end of November to award construction contracts for four highway sectors totaling 270 kilometers. The construction of the four highway sectors in central and western Romania will be financed through the Transport Sectoral Operational Program. The four highway sectors, namely Nadlac-Arad, Orastie-Sibiu, Timisoara-Lugoj and Lugoj-Deva, are part of the Pan-European Corridor IV. "In February-March 2011 we will have the contracts signed," Transport Minister Anca Boagiu said Friday during a visit to the new terminal of the International Airport Henri Coanda in Otopeni, near capital Bucharest.
