Last month, three contracts for EU funds were signed, worth a total of EUR270 million through the Transport sector operational program, but even if the money is paid over the next few weeks and absorption reaches nearly EUR400 million, i.e. 8.6% at the end of June, this does not significantly change calculations, with other programs already reaching 15 to 20% of the total.
Since 2007, 44 contracts for EU fund have been signed, worth a total of EUR2.3 billion, half of the amounts made available by the EU.
Since the beginning of this year, Romania has made payments worth a total of EUR68 million from EU funds for Transport, with the poorest months being March, April and May, when payments totaled EUR2.7 million.
