The project, approved by the General Council at the proposal of mayor Ciprian Ciucu, aims to improve traffic flow, prioritize public transport, and reduce pollution, the City Hall said.

“The feasibility studies and the technical-economic indicators for the modernization of the first 92 intersections and pedestrian crossings, as well as for the setup of the command center, were approved during yesterday’s General Council meeting, following a proposal by mayor Ciprian Ciucu,” reads the announcement.
