STRABAG completed the design and construction of the new bypass around the Municipality of Făgăraș in Brașov County, five and a half months ahead of schedule. The project included both design and construction services. The design phase was completed in only three months, while the construction works began on 21 November 2023 and were finalized on 31 May 2025.
The bypass, which has a total length of 5.9 km and a carriageway width of 7 m plus additional widenings, includes three modern roundabouts and two new bridges crossing a tributary of the Olt River and the Berivoi stream.
Both bridges were built using reinforced concrete frames with single spans of 21.5 m and 30 m respectively. To ensure the highest level of safety, 8‑metre‑high LED lighting poles were installed on the bridges and throughout the route.
The technical works for the project were extensive and included excavation and embankment operations, the laying of multiple layers of ballast and asphalt designed for very heavy traffic, the construction of 13 culverts and two reinforced concrete culverts, as well as over one kilometre of reinforced concrete retaining walls.
The drainage system was also completely rebuilt with more than 13 km of trapezoidal ditches and channels leading to culvert drop chambers, ensuring efficient surface water collection. Road markings, vertical and horizontal traffic signage and full LED lighting were installed.
