The bridge over the Byk River in Anenii Noi district was opened to traffic on October 26. It forms part of the regional road Floreşti – Anenii Noi and ensures connection between a number of local arteries. The construction works cost 18 million lei, with the funds being allocated from the state budget, IPN reports.

The old bridge was closed in July 2017 and the demolition and construction works started last autumn.

Attending the inaugural ceremony, Prime Minister Pavel Filip said the bridge is a symbol that unites people and localities literally and figuratively.

Pavel Filip today also inspected the building site in Speia village of Anenii Noi district. 2.2 km of a local road there are being rehabilitated with the 30 million allocated from the road fund. The road connects the district center and five large villages.

The Premier said construction works will soon start near Delacău village, on a road portion of 4 km. The works to build the 28-km Bulboaca-Delacău road were estimated at 189 million lei.
