Sînziana Pardhan, Managing Director P3 Romania, states:“We are happy to be able to offer our clients this facility and to meet the problems they face when looking to recruit workforce. Compared to the minibuses currently used by our tenants, rail transport is intended to be a more cost-effective and faster alternative to bringing labour force to P3 Bucharest A1. Along these lines, we are also putting our efforts into aligning to the European trend of using less polluting public transport. Our consideration and appreciation go to CFR Călători, whom we thank for their openness and professionalism. This new transport configuration will bring positive results to both our business partners and to the people living in neighbouring localities interested in a job within the P3 Bucharest A1 community.”

We are pleased to actively contribute to the development of new logistics solutions in the western part of Bucharest, solutions that take into account the latest European concepts regarding labour force mobility. CFR Călători's mission is to ensure the passengers’mobility, contributing, at the same time, to societal development. In this context, we aim to build for our organization a sustainable position in all segments and geographical areas of the country, so that Romanians can travel to any destination in the country, whether for business or recreational purposes. We are working hard to meet the challenge of keeping up with the needs of the modern world in terms of mobility and the speed with which new technologies evolve, and we will continue to put travel at the centre of our business.”
