Romania road closures affect A2 and A10 motorways
Significant traffic restrictions are affecting major motorways in Romania. On the A2 motorway, the connection ramp between the A2 and A0 is closed from October 29 at 09:00 until October 30 at 12:00. This closure, located at kilometer 53+240 on the Bucharest to Constanta side, is necessary for milling and asphalt laying works. Drivers traveling toward Pitesti or Oltenita are advised to use cloverleaf junction ramps as alternative routes.
Separately, a 17 kilometer section of the A10 Sebes–Turda motorway has been closed in the Sebes–Turda direction between the Unirea and Turda junctions. The National Company for Road Infrastructure Administration (CNAIR) stated the closure is required for emergency repairs to remediate road degradation. While CNAIR argues that maintaining traffic on a single lane would have increased risks of accidents and congestion, the decision has faced criticism from former transport official Horatiu Cosma, who suggested that alternative traffic management methods used in other countries could have avoided diverting thousands of vehicles onto the congested DN1 national road.
