Transport in Oradea is provided by a network of public transport operating trams and buses, as well as roads. Tram and bus services are run by Oradea Transport Local S.A. (commonly known as OTL).
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 in 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.
