Nicolae Robu, the mayor of Timişoara, has cut the aerial cables in the city’s downtown area. The move came after telecom operators ignored the City Hall’s requests to move the cables underground, he said. The mayor cut some of the TV and internet cables himself, alongside a team of workers from the City Hall, according to Romania-Insider.com.
A 2009 local council decision compels TV, internet and telephony providers to move the cables underground, Stirileprotv.ro reported.
Eight cable operators were impacted by the cuts. The residents and companies in almost the entire central area of the city were left without internet and TV signal.
