It is the most important day in the last 20 years for our community. I hope the airport will be the main reason for the foreign companies to invest in Iași, to create more employment opportunities and well-being, and for the citizens of Iasi living abroad a better reason to return home.

We will mobilise ourselves in order to start on time. Starting with now, for us, as builders, time is running and we are interested in finalising the project on time. We will try to avoid contract penalties. We have prepared our personnel and machines necessary for the works. In the first stage, we will start the design, and as soon as the project is approved by the competent bodies, we will start the construction works. We would like to start the works even earlier than September. Some works can be executed even before the design or at the same time with it, such as organising the construction site. We will work in three shifts. We are taking into consideration to work most nights”, stated Mr. Mathias KIRR.
