The set of measures for the first 3 km (from km 0+000 to km 3+325) provides informing the entrepreneur of the termination of contract, by February 16, and the new contract awarding procedures are to be completed by the end of June 2015.
Mid-2014, former transport minister Dan Sova said CNADNR had informed the builders of the first 6.5 km of the Bucharest-Ploiesti of the termination of the construction contract.
