Călărași: Modern street lighting on 39 streets

An EU grant of €544,600 helped modernise public lighting across 25 kilometres of the network. A total of 940 LED streetlights were installed throughout the city, managed through an online monitoring and control system.

The “Fireflies in the Heart of Codri” (Licurici în inima Codrilor) project also included lighting for 20 pedestrian crossings, as well as the History and Ethnography Museum. The investment makes evening travel safer while reducing energy consumption and maintenance costs.
