Abstract: In the last 15 years in Bucharest was trying to take measures, some based on Traffic surveys conducted in 1998 and 2008 by JICA and WSP Group. Although those were taken measures to ease the traffic the results delay to occur. Car traffic in Bucharest creates very serious problems in recent years. In the hours 7:30 to 9:30 and 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. most arteries are congested, congestion occurring major and temporary traffic jams. In recent studies conducted, the number of parking spaces in peripheral arteries is provided at a rate of 12% - 23%, other vehicles pull up on the street lining the roadway narrowing further. From 1992 to 2011 the appropriate road surface of a vehicle decreased to 7.2 times. From 1992 to 2011 the appropriate road surface of a vehicle decreased to 7.2 times in many areas of Bucharest traffic increase is not directly proportional to increasing motorization in Bucharest. This increase was influenced by administrative decisions insufficiently studied?
