After setting a deadline for the completion of the Cernavoda-Constanta highway last week, transport minister Radu Berceanu announced on Saturday that the Arad-Timisoara highway should be finished at approximately the same time, in 2011.
The minister said the construction of the Arad-Nadlac motorway and the highway linking western Timisoara to central Sibiu will start next year, according to Mediafax newswire.
Berceanu added that a EUR 180 million contract to build the Deva-Orastie highway will be signed soon.
