Boagiu said EUR8.5 billion will be needed to construct the 65 new stations.
Metrorex general manager Gheorghe Udriște said works on mainline 4 will continue from the Parc Bazilescu station to Lac Straulesti. He added the company will launch an auction this fall to construct two more stations – Laminorul and Lac Staulesti – for about 800 million lei (some EUR189 million).
The two stations will have a train depot and a parking lot.
On Friday, Metrorex opened to new stations on mainline 4, namely Jiului and Parc Bazilescu. The investment cost EUR72.5 million, VAT not included.
