Various cities in Romania and Moldova are implementing traffic and pedestrian restrictions due to a combination of public events and infrastructure projects.

In Romania, Timișoara is managing restrictions for the ‘Reborn Run’ charity event, railway modernization on the Timișoara Est–Lugoj section, and religious processions. Local authorities are also working to expand parking in the Girocului area. Bucharest is experiencing road closures and public transport diversions for the ‘Străzi Deschise’ cultural event on Calea Victoriei and the Tour of Romania cycling race. Additionally, tramway modernization works are affecting transit in eastern Bucharest and the Constanța Bridge area. In Cluj-Napoca, the reconstruction of the Garibaldi Bridge has led to the suspension of several bus lines and the use of a temporary bridge. In Lugoj, Splaiul Tinereții faces road and pedestrian closures through December 31, 2026, to facilitate the rehabilitation of green spaces and modernization of parks.

In Moldova, Chișinău is facing major disruptions due to the ‘Chișinău Marathon 2026’, with several central streets closed and public transport routes modified or suspended. Local festivities in Rucăr have also necessitated street closures.
