The second section of the highway will be built by Italian consortium Salini-Secol and the third section by a consortium made up of firms Teloxim Con SRL, Comsa SA, Aldesa Construcciones SA and Arcadis Eurometudes SA, the Department for Infrastructure Projects and Foreign Investments said Thursday without disclosing the value of the contracts and their duration.
Constructors Tehnostrade and Spedition UMB won the contract to build the fourth section of the highway.
In August 2012, national roads authority CNADNR said it received about 20 offers for the construction of each of the three sections of the Lugoj-Deva highway. The three sections are 71.9 kilometers in length and their design is expected to take a maximum of six months. The project should be completed in about two years.
In April 2011, CNADNR selected consortium Tirrena Scavi-Societa Italiana per Condotte d’Acqua- Cossi Construzioni to build the first section (27.4 kilometers) of the highway.
The Lugoj-Deva highway is part of Pan-European Transport Corridor IV. (EUR1=RON4.3465)
