Two contracts for the reconstruction of sections of the national road M3 Porumbrei-Cimișlia and the building of a road that will bypass Comrat town, with a total length of over 37 km, were signed by the State Road Administration and the Turkish company ONUR Taahhut Tasimacilik Insaat Ticaret Ve Sanayi on September 11. A sum of €59.4 million was allocated for the works, IPN has learned from the Ministry of Economy and Infrastructure.

According to Minister Kiril Gaburici, the given roads are expected by the citizens all over the country. When the works are completed, the local entrepreneurs will incur smaller transport expenses and the orders could be carried out faster.

“These are roads that form part of the international transport corridors at European level. When the road that will bypass Comrat is built, traffic in the town will be eased especially after a production hall within the Free Economic Zone, which will employ over 1,000 persons, will start to work in the region in 2019,” stated Kiril Gaburici.

The works are to last for 36 months and the defect notification period will be of 12 months. The Turkish company already implemented contracts in Moldova, building 50 km of roads.

The contracts form part of the Road Sector Program that is implemented with the financial support of the European Investment Bank.
