On June 27, 2023, a new consultative meeting of experts in the field of road infrastructure from both banks of the Nistru River was held at the headquarters of the OSCE Mission in Bender.
During the meeting, the experts tackled once again the issue of the appropriate management of the road bridge positioned on the expressway M1 Border with Romania - Leuseni - Chisinau - Dubăsari - border with Ukraine, km 129+810, which crosses the Nistru river near the town Dubăsari, commissioned in 1965 and rehabilitated in 1997.
The experts from Chisinau brought relevant arguments in favor of taking the necessary measures to repair this bridge, considering its precarious condition, the degree of wear of the columns, the erosion of the metal elements, the seismic resistance, as well as other elements related to its operating conditions.
Discussions continued on the proposals for immediate actions previously formulated by Chisinau, which would include the limitation of tonnage, traffic speed and distance between means of transport, in accordance with the rigors prescribed by the technical expertise. Solutions have been identified for the implementation of speed and distance limitations, with further consultations regarding the maximum admissible tonnage on the bridge.
It was agreed to continue the dialogue on the subject of the above-mentioned bridge for the implementation, in the near future, of the identified and agreed technical solutions.
