The Sibiu Municipality in Central Romania has attracted structural funds of some EUR 132 million, financing works on water supply and sewage, on roads, on schools and a hospital, said Mayor Klaus Iohannis, quoted by local Mediafax.

He added that the number of completed projects is “relatively low”, and the deadline for the six ongoing projects is end-2015.

According to data from City Hall representatives, quoted by Mediafax, the six ongoing projects have a total value of RON 545.1 million (some EUR 126 million). The projects include expanding and revamping water and wastewater systems in Sibiu and Brasov counties, the construction of a Centre of Research and Telemedicine for children neurological diseases, within the Sibiu Paediatric Hospital, and the modernization and rehabilitation of several streets.
