Alternating parking on Strada Națională: the City Hall will tow cars left in the cleaners' way, while drivers contest the hour chosen

Ungheni City Hall has set a clear schedule for alternating parking on Strada Națională — a two-hour ban every morning, on each side in turn — and warns that cars left in the way of the street-cleaning machines will be towed. In the comments, several drivers complain that the chosen interval, between 8 and 10 in the morning, falls right at the traffic peak and the shopping rush.

Three hours of water a day across four sectors: Sculeni rations water amid the heatwave

At the peak of the heatwave, Sculeni commune’s City Hall and the “Servicom Sculeni” utility have put water on a ration. From Tuesday, 30 June, the village was split into four sectors, each getting water for only three hours a day, between 9.00 and 18.00. The reason, the authority says: huge consumption for watering gardens and irresponsible use of the network, which collapsed the pressure. Water trouble in Sculeni is not new — the council passed decisions on it in both 2024 and 2025.
