Modernisation of regional transport infrastructure on the Visina route – Ceamurlia de Sus

General objective: Increasing the accessibility of rural and urban areas located close to the TEN-T corridor (Constanţa – Tulcea – Brăila) by upgrading the county road route DJ222 Visina – Ceamurlia de Sus. By its geographical location, Tulcea County is located in the south-eastern part of Romania, bordered to the west and north by the Danube, and to the east by the Black Sea, it is a peripheral area with a high degree of isolation. The project proposed for funding is a priority for achieving the objectives envisaged by Tulcea County’s Integrated Sustainable Development Strategy for 2014-2020, the Regional Development Plan 2014-2020 (list of priority projects linked to the General Master Plan for Transport) and in line with the National Regional Development Strategy. The South East region at the confluence of ancient historical regions is an ancient hearth of history and civilisation. Testimony are the Getic, Roman, Greek and Byzantine fortresses, monuments and archaeological sites, as well as the monasteries and buildings with special ethnographic value, spread throughout the region. Due to the environmental conditions and the physico-geographical position, the South-East Region has a very diverse natural capital, which includes the Black Sea, mountains, plains, major hydrographic networks, wetlands and one of Europe’s largest delta systems (Danube Delta). The natural resources of the county are arable land, vineyards, pastures that allow various crop crops, livestock farming, waters and ponds for fishing and hunting, forests for hunting, leisure, environmental protection, mineral resources for building stone such as granite, then quartzite and limestone, and last but not least the stretches of the Danube Delta for tourism potential. From the perspective of the riches of the basement, Tulcea county stands out for the granite in Măcinului Mountains, limestone in Dobrogei Podis, iron ore, copper pyrites, complex lead and zinc sulfides, quartz, granite, marble and limestone varieties, kaolin, baritine from Tulcea hills. In addition, Dobrogea has been identified as an area with a high wind energy potential, which contributes significantly to Romania’s obligations in the field of renewable energies and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. In this context, sustainable economic development by improving transport infrastructure, expanding and improving access to public utilities, preserving the environment and adapting to climate change, as well as developing tourism and adjacent services, is a priority of sustainable development for our county, this activity can lead to balanced and homogeneous development of all areas of the county and reduce disparities between them. The areas covered by the project are areas with a potential growth
