Ion Ceban
This was announced by the capital’s mayor, Ion Ceban. To date, work on upgrading the stormwater drainage system and installing gabions has been completed. The laying of granite slabs on the pavements and the installation of granite drainage channels have been finished. Work is continuing on the pavements, the cycle path and the side entrances.
This work is scheduled to be completed shortly, with the exception of the section featuring historic cobblestones. For this section, the National Council for Historical Monuments has approved a change to the technical design, permitting the missing sections to be filled in with the approved type of stone.
Although the street was commissioned three years ago, work began this summer following changes to the project by the Ministry of Culture, Cheban noted. As a result, the cost of the work has increased significantly.
In March 2023, 19th-century historic cobblestones were discovered during the works. Due to their value, the reconstruction was temporarily suspended: it was necessary to carry out research, document the find and agree on further steps with the Ministry of Culture and the National Council for Historical Monuments (CNMI).
The project was subsequently refined and amendments were made, which led to an increase in the cost of the works. Consequently, work resumed in the summer of 2026.
Under the contract, the work is scheduled to be completed by 31 December 2026. The pace of work depends on technical conditions and the weather.
