In Suceava, public transportation is being modernised, as is the rehabilitation of municipal spaces
Suceava municipality in north-eastern Romania intends to improve sustainable mobility in the city by encouraging the use of electric and environmentally friendly buses. The measures would be implemented this year by introducing one-way traffic on a number of main roads, but they would be contingent on the completion of another major project - the modernisation of public transportation.
