Vehicle traffic on Ștefan cel Mare Boulevard, the section between Pușkin St and Bănulescu-Bodoni St, will be closed on Friday between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. During the restrictions, a rehearsal for the cultural-artistic events organized on Independence Day will take place in the Great National Assembly Square, reports IPN.

The Chisinau City Hall says that public transport - trolleybuses, buses and minibuses - will be detoured, bypassing the Square on the adjacent streets.

On Friday evening, traffic along the Square will be suspended from 20:00 and will remain so until August 27, 24:00.
