Project summary: The construction of a 1.6 km section of the Tartu bicycle and pedestrian road will mean a significant improvement in road safety on one of the main roads in the town of Valga - Tartu Street. The road will make it safer for cyclists from the outskirts of the city to reach the city centre, connecting the planned centre of Sooru (the centre before the 2017 administrative reform) and the centre of Valga.
