About 71 kilometers of the A0 ring road are currently under construction, and two of the three sections on the southern side should be ready and open already this year. From the Soarelui A2 freeway to the DN6-Bragadiru junction, there are about 34 kilometers, all of which have a chance of being put into traffic in 2023.

On the southern side, the A0 ring road is about 52 kilometers long, all of which are currently under construction, but section 3 – about 18 kilometers from the A1 and up to the DN6 – is being built by the Greeks from Aktor, far behind and there are “thrills” even for the inauguration in 2024 …

In the other two sections, the Turks from Alsim Larko have good conditions to complete and put into traffic about 33.5 km of highway, from the junction with A2 to the junction with DN6 (Bragadiru).

More advanced is Section 2 (Section length: 16.5 km/Cost: 750 million lei), where the DN5-DN6 section of almost 10 km can be opened in June-July, and then the rest of the section can be completed in autumn.

At the same time, Alsim Alarco still has a chance to open the entire section 1 A0 Sud (16.93 km, between A2 and CF 902, cost: 831 million lei) at the end of 2023.

In theory, Alsim Alarko Section 1 “has a deadline of September 2023, but the reality on the ground is taking us to the edge, in December,” the Pro Infrastructure Association warned.
