Bacău DJ 252: 6,517 m² of geogrids in a retaining wall contract

By Arthur Hof · 15.10.2026 · 3 min read

Bacău County signed a contract on 5 October 2026 for the works still to be done on the retaining wall on county road DJ 252 between Buhoci and Bibirești, at km 121+530 to 121+780. The contractor is STRAZI CONCEPT. The contract value is 2,234,552.84 RON, which is 418,746 EUR at the exchange rate in our data, and the works period is 6 months.

The notice states geosynthetics in numbers. It gives the area of geogrids and geocells in square metres, which is what a supplier of geosynthetics looks for, and it also gives a length of metal parapet and of shoulder drain.

What was signed and when

The award notice SCNA1138039 was published on e-licitatie.ro on 13 October 2026, eight days after signature (notice). That is slower than the median of 3 days for contracts signed in the last 30 days in our data, and close to the 7-day median for the last 90 days. The CPV code on the notice is 45233120-6, road construction works. The contract is a single lot.

The authority is the county, Județul Bacău. The works lie in the territory of the communes Buhoci and Ungureni and pass through the villages Buhoci and Bibirești.

Why this is a contract for the remaining part

The title of the notice ends with "rest de executat", the part still to be executed. The notice explains why. A design-and-build contract for the consolidation of this road was concluded in 2019 with a completion date of 31 December 2022. By that date, the notice says, the expropriation procedures that would hand the site over free of encumbrances had not been completed, and the earlier contract did not continue.

The works carried out under that contract were inventoried and recorded in a partial acceptance record. The notice lists them:

• 165 bored reinforced-concrete piles, C25/30, each 21 m long;
• a stiffening beam in reinforced concrete C35/45, 25 sections of 4.5 m each;
• a metal parapet, in the notice's words:

parapet metalic, aproximativ 157,50 m.

That is, approximately 157.50 m of metal parapet. It is listed among the works already executed, so it should not be added to the quantities below.

What the notice states for the new contract

A second, bulleted list in the notice follows the inventory of executed works and gives quantities. Four of them matter to suppliers:

geogrile: 6517 mp

That is 6,517 m² of geogrids, stated without a qualifier.

geocelule umplute cu pământ: ≈ 1229 mp

That is approximately 1,229 m² of geocells filled with soil. The notice itself marks the figure as approximate.

rigolă de acostament: ≈ 262 m

Approximately 262 m of shoulder drain, in the notice's term a rigolă de acostament.

parapet metalic: ≈ 104,50 m

Approximately 104.50 m of metal parapet, again with the notice's own sign for "about". The same list also names repairs of the asphalt surface and a wearing course of 4 cm in BAPC16 (notice).

How to read these figures

Every number above is a quantity the notice states. None of it is a bill of materials, and this article adds no totals of its own. The notice names no standard or product for the geogrids or geocells, and it does not say who will supply them. For the vocabulary used in European geosynthetics standards, ISO 10318-1:2015 is the terminology standard; the notice does not refer to it.

Where the notice says "approximately", read it as a planning figure that the works can move. The 6,517 m² of geogrids carries no such word, but the notice is still a statement of the contracting authority, not a delivery schedule.

For other county-road contracts read the same way, see the Novaci, Sânmartin and Săcuieu article and the 30-day overview of signed contracts. The product pages for geosynthetics and guardrails group contracts of this kind, and the evidence page explains where the figures come from.
