The Romanian Transport Ministry has completed its plans for the Targu-Mures-Lasi highway, with final approval pending from the Romanian Government. The highway measures 289km long and is expected to take four years to construct and will cost some €8.71 billion in all. Because of its length the project has been divided into four separate sections: the 92km Targu Mures-Ditrau section; the 119km Ditrau-Targu Neamt stretch; the 78km Targu Neamt-Lasi section.
