As part of this project, a transport hub will be created in the area, featuring new access roads beneath the bridge on Izmail Street.

There are also plans to introduce a smart traffic light system at junctions all the way to the roundabout near the CTC tobacco factory.

Mayor Ion Ceban, who was present at the event, emphasised that the reconstruction of the road bridge on Izmail Street is a major project for Chișinău.

“We intend to present the project to the municipal council on Thursday with a view to approving the pre-financing agreement that we have concluded with external partners,” said Ion Cheban, Mayor of Chișinău. “In less than three months, we received approval from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Once this project is approved, we will be able to proceed with all the legal procedures necessary for the reconstruction of the bridge. The sum involved is 10 million euros (200 million lei), as the bridge is old and in a deplorable state.”

In addition, the municipality, in collaboration with the railway authorities, is planning two alternative crossings over the railway tracks.

Another new development is the project to build a new bridge next to the bridge on Izmail Street, in the direction of Alexandri Street, which will span the railway tracks.
