The National Roads and Highways Company (2870 CNADNR) has recently signed a further five new contracts for the construction of highway segments. These will form part of the Pan-European Corridor IV and the total value of the deals is close to €693 million, including VAT. A consortium formed by Spedition UMB-Tehnostrade-Carena Impresa di Costruzioni was awarded a contract worth nearly €64 million to build a 10km segment of the Timisoara-Lugoj highway. Romstrade-2753 Monte Adriano Engenharia e Construcao-Donep Construct consortium won a contract worth €116 million to build a segment of the Nadlac-Arad highway. Another segment of this highway measuring 16.6km will be built by Austrian contractor Alpine Bau for €124.5 million.
