The project is estimated at EUR200 million and works might start in the summer of 2012. The value of the design contract might range between 3% and 7% of the total value of the investment.
Romstrade received bids from several international firms and estimates it will sign the design contract in December.
“If we sign [the contract] in December and the design of the project will last four or six months, construction works may start in the summer of 2012 and works should be finished in two years,” Romstrade Strategy and Development director Gheorghe Racaru said Friday.
Constructor Romstrade and low cost airline Blue Air are among the companies that make up the group, which is controlled by businessman Nelu Iordache.
