RRF backs Romanian highway development, including the Transilvania Motorway project.

Aims to construct a 42.30 km section, enhancing safety and connectivity within the TEN-T Core network.

Goals encompass improved travel speed, reduced pollution, with a 1.3 billion EUR budget. Expected completion by July 2024.

The Recovery and Resilience Facility provides financial support to the development of highways across Romania. The general objective of the Transilvania Motorway construction project, of which the Nadașelu - Poarta Sălajului Section is also a part, is the construction of a motorway sector that will connect the urban agglomerations of Cluj and Oradea and is part of a larger measure, with the aim of modernizing and the development of the infrastructure of national interest, within the TEN-T Core network, so as to ensure the increase in the degree of safety, the speed of travel and the improvement of transport conditions.
