The M21 highway (Romanian: Drumul național M21) is a road in Moldova, which links Chișinău to the border with Ukraine near Dubău via Dubăsari. It is 60 km (37 mi) long, and forms part of the European route E584 of the International E-road network. Furthermore, it also shares a small segment with the E58 and E581 north-west of Chișinău.[1]
Route description
The M21 highway starts at an intersection with the R1 road west of the capital city of Chișinău.[2] Heading north-east, it then meets with the M2, M14 and R4 through a complex interchange. This is the northern terminus of the M21's interference with the E58 and E581 and the southern terminus of the interference with the European route E584.[3]
Between Chișinău and Dubăsari, the road doubles the republican road R4, which has its eastern terminus on the M21 near Criuleni. The road then crosses the Dniester to reach the unrecognized state of Transnistria.[4]
Immediately after entering the Transnistrian territory, the road reaches a roundabout with the M4 highway, which provides access to Dubăsari, which the M21 bypasses in the south-east.[4] The road then continues to head north-east to the border with Ukraine near Dubău, from where it continues as the Ukrainian highway M13, towards Kropyvnytskyi.[5]
