The vehicles with a capacity of under 10 tonnes could cross the Gura Bicului-Bychok road bridge over the Nistru. This way the length of international passenger and freight routes will decrease by almost 50 and direct access will be ensured to the localities in Transnistria, IPN reports, with reference to the Ministry of Economy and Infrastructure.
The decision was taken in a meeting of the joint group of experts on transport and road infrastructure with a view to fluidizing the transportation of freight and persons and facilitating the connection between the two banks of the Nistru. The necessary traffic signs were already installed there.
The Gura Bicului-Bychok bridge in Anenii Noi district was reopened to traffic on November 18, 2017. This was destroyed as a result of bombardments during the military conflict of 1992 and was reconstructed in 2002 with European funds, but wasn’t put into commission immediately owing to technical glitches.
