American company Bechtel needs to finish 45 km of highway in Central Romania this year alone, Development minister Laszlo Borbely said on Tuesday, quoted by NewsIn. The official added that, until now, Bechtel did not finish anything yet. Borbely added that authorities worked very well with Bechtel last year and for this year, the budget for the works increased.

Even though Borbely said that Bechtel has yet to announce the end of works at at least a portion of the highway linking Central Romania with the Western border, he argued that the company did not use to officially announce when finishing each meter, on the contrary.
