How water climbs from the Prut up to the hill of Boghenii Vechi: the commune has brought its water main into all four of its villages
The Boghenii Noi commune hall announced on 22 July that it had completed connecting the village of Boghenii Vechi to the water main, including the 'hill zone' — the hardest part to supply, because the water has to be pumped more than 200 metres higher than the source. The water comes from Zagarancea, from the Prut river, the same source that also supplies the town of Ungheni. In official statistics, the village shows a public water network only from 2025: 3.1 km and 59 connected dwellings. It is a small piece of a national process that, in 2024, delivered 507 of the 561 kilometres of new network precisely in villages.
