The update of the General Urban Plan of the Municipality of Chișinău is a complex process that involves analysing the city’s current situation, integrating information from different fields, and defining development directions with a planning horizon extending to 2040. During this period, work and coordination on the preparation of the document continue. Data, studies, and information related to spatial development, mobility, infrastructure, public services, the economy, housing, and other areas that influence how the municipality functions and develops are being analysed.

28 SEPTEMBER 2026
Chișinău already has a General Urban Plan, prepared in 2007. However, over nearly two decades, the city has changed: new residential and commercial areas have developed, the number of vehicles has increased, mobility, infrastructure, and public service needs have evolved, and some provisions of the existing plan no longer reflect the current situation. For this reason, the General Urban Plan of the Municipality of Chișinău is currently being updated. The new plan will establish the main directions for the city’s urban development with a planning horizon extending to 2040.
