As regards transfers for the financing of subway investment projects, Metrorex received RON234 million, which were allocated based on emergency decree no. 83/2016 and will be distributed to the fourth, fifth and sixth mainlines. Thus, the fourth mainline gets RON64 million, the sixth mainline has RON130 million at disposal and the fifth mainline (the first section Drumul Taberei – Universitate) gets RON40 million, according to Metrorex.
Nearly RON110 million represent amounts of money left unspent which is carried forward in 2017 to the mainlines mentioned above. The fourth mainline has RON86.4 million at disposal, the sixth mainline gets RON8.2 million and the fifth mainline (the first section Drumul Taberei – Universitate) gets RON15.2 million.
Former Transport minister Sorin Buse said in November 2016 that subway section Eroilor – Drumul Taberei would be put in use starting with the second half of 2017.
