Roads
Oradea has 1 inner ring road and 1 outer ring road which was completed in June 2025. Three European roads pass through the city. Additionally, the metropolitan area has seen the building of 5 ring roads in Sanmartin, Santandrei, Nojorid, Biharia and Osorhei with the plan of reducing traffic congestion. Also in the metropolitan area is DEx16 that connects Oradea to the A3 Motorway which was completed on March 2024 and it's the only one that has been built by local authorities rather than Romania's national road company CNAIR. There are plans to build an Expressway to link Oradea to Arad. Currently, the road is in the tendering process. Inside the city, Oradea built the most complex underpass network in Romania with 7 underpasses near Unirii Square. The Decebal Boulevard was modernized entirely with the addition of an underpass at the intersection with Tudor Vladimirescu Street.Tram
There are three tram lines in Oradea, and these run together for most of their journey. The lines are 1, 2 and 3. Lines 1 and 3 run together in a city loop, while Line 2 joins part of this loop in part of its journey. All quarters except Vie are served by trams. Trams do not actually run in the city centre, since this is a historic area with narrow streets. They do, however, run on the border of the city in a loop, and then continue through to all the residential areas and quarters.- Line 1 runs from Sinteza Factory, which is located in the industrial west of Oradea, very close to the township of Borş and the Hungarian border, via the quarter of Rogerius, the central railway station, the city centre and then loops back to Rogerius.
- Line 2 runs from Ioșia quarter via the southern city centre and the heart of the city to Cantemir quarter and then Nufărul.
- Line 3 ) runs from Nufărul and then does the city loop from the Civic Centre onwards, terminating back at the Civic Centre near the main market.
