The Chisinau City Hall is expanding Mircea cel Batran Boulevard, on the section between Profesor Ion Dumeniuc and Bucovinei streets. The project envisages a complete modernization of the road infrastructure, including the arrangement of bicycle lanes, public transport stations and underground networks. For the first time in the city, the project also includes the placement of charging stations for electric vehicles along the boulevard, reports IPN.
