Romania has awarded the first contract under the National Company for Road Investments (CNIR), selecting a consortium led by SA&PE Construct S.R.L. in partnership with Tehnostrade S.R.L., Spedition UMB, and Euro Asfalt to design and construct Section 1C S\u0103r\u0103\u021beni-Joseni on the A8 Highway, also known as the \u201cUnion Highway.\u201d The contract, worth roughly EUR 1 billion (RON 4.94 billion), marks a significant step in the development of the highway\u2019s mountainous section.<\/p>\n
The project will be funded through European grants under the Transport Program 2021-2027 and the state budget.<\/p>\n
Spanning 32.4 kilometers through Mure\u0219 and Harghita counties, the section will feature 39 bridges and overpasses, three unidirectional tunnels, four avalanche protection structures, and two wildlife crossings.<\/p>\n
Nearly half of the section – around 16 kilometers – will consist of tunnels and viaducts, with the longest overpass exceeding 1,700 meters and the highest viaduct reaching 45 meters.<\/p>\n
The project also includes two short-term parking areas with 12 charging stations for electric vehicles, as well as temporary exits to ensure independent functionality, CNIR said.<\/p>\n
The contract has a completion timeline of 54 months, with 14 months allocated for design and 40 months for construction. It is set to be signed once all necessary procedures are finalized.<\/p>\n\n
