No, we'll not spend money on the seaside, nor at the mountains, and to be honest some of the hosts where we had experiences past many years, I hope they go broke this time, and start fresh to have more consideration for their tourists, and not trying to rip-off at every corner (but that's another topic)
To better understand, past 3 or 4 years, from Bucharest, we mostly escaped to the South during holidays (either Bulgaria, or Greece) ... and so I was rather disconnected from any kind of progress with the highways in my country. I know everyone complains, we also had protests and all that, but myself I was not a driver to the north, to experience the ordeal on myown.
This week, I did. For the most part, it was an OKish experience. Driving through Europe on several occasions, I was rather surprised that I had so many km on the highway in my country. But then, we stopped. Aiud - Sebes, 45 km, a segment that is the current nightmare for anyone that choose this route. Unless you plan to reach there in the middle of the night, or on week-ends, you'll be holding for at minimum 1 hr. Not acceptable.
Which is to say, at the next elections, I will vote with the party that will convince me to these points:
1. when this crappy segment Aiud - Sebes is ready (we're rather delayed, so many wasted resources ...)
2. when the two highways over the mountains are ready: Pitesti - Sibiu, Comarnic - Brasov
3. are plans already being considered to extend these highways, already constructed, or the unfinished ones ?
The last point above is for any long-term planning for any party in this country. I have a clear feeling that what we have now is already not enough, from the infrastructure requirements. And I'm a software engineer, not a transportation one, but I'm pretty sure I'm right.
