The estimated value of the project is 7.4 billion lei, and the execution period is 24 months, i.e. 2 years.

At the same time, the Government approved a normative act that provides for the transfer from the public domain to the private domain of the state of some assets under the administration of the ministry and under the concession of the National Railway Company “C.F.R.” – S.A., for their decommissioning and valorization.

The measure targets assets without functional utility, with an advanced degree of wear and tear, including railway infrastructure buildings that can no longer function, transport activity having ceased in previous years.

According to the minister, the assets will be taken out of use to streamline the management of public assets, but also to reduce maintenance costs.
