Major repairs commenced on Bucharest’s Basarab Bridge on Saturday, June 20th, with the construction company initiating a “maximum mobilization” of resources. The project, announced by the Bucharest Municipal Government, focuses on the bridge’s intersection with Calea Plevnei, where scaffolding has already been erected. The repairs are expected to last for ten months, causing significant traffic disruptions. Authorities have not yet detailed specific traffic management plans during the construction period. The municipality asserts the work is essential for the bridge’s long-term structural integrity. This project marks a substantial undertaking for Bucharest’s infrastructure.
