The Minister of Transport, Ciprian Șerban, announced the submission of two bids in the framework of the tender for the design and execution of the Fast Danube 2 project, an investment estimated at approximately 170 million euros, which aims to revitalize the Romanian-Bulgarian sector of the Danube over a distance of 470 kilometers.
