175 kilometres without a motorway from Bacău to Ungheni: Romania opens A7, but the corridor to Moldova remains incomplete

Romania today opened 47 new kilometres on the A7 motorway between Adjud and Bacău — the fourth-longest single-day motorway opening in the country's history. From Bacău to the Sculeni border crossing, 175 kilometres remain on ordinary roads. Pașcani, where A7 was supposed to reach under the NRRP, is estimated only for the summer of 2027.

An expired technical inspection will automatically suspend your registration — what changes for drivers in Ungheni

On 9 July, Parliament passed, in the second reading, a law that automatically suspends the registration of vehicles with an expired periodic technical inspection or with dangerous defects. When the inspection expires, the suspension applies immediately; for defects, after 30 days during which you may only drive to a garage. Anyone driving with a suspended registration risks fines of up to 1,200 lei and having their plates removed. The law takes effect in six months. For Ungheni residents the stake is concrete: 87 people died on the district's roads over ten years, and the inspection is done in town at just three stations.

128,000 tonnes on 383 kilometres: what the new EU truck rules mean for Ungheni's roads

Parliament has passed, in first reading, a law replacing today's weight limits — which differ from one road to another — with a single set aligned to EU standards, and it introduces the concept of TEN-T roads. For Ungheni — an agricultural district that hauls some 128,000 tonnes of grain and sunflower a year over 383 kilometres of roads, and through which the European railway to Iași will pass — the stake is who pays for the roads. Importantly, the weight limits take effect only upon EU accession.
