The Făgăraș–Sibiu Motorway (Romanian: Autostrada Făgăraș–Sibiu) is a planned motorway in the central part of Romania planned to connect the A3 and A1 motorways.[1] Including the Brașov-Făgăraș segment of A1, it is planned to be 103 kilometres (64 mi) long and probably labeled A13.[1] From Sibiu, it will follow the Olt River valley, and will junction with A1 south of Sibiu before running through Avrig, Cârțișoara, Voila to a junction with A3 east of Făgăraş.

Initially planned as an expressway as an alternative to the National Road 1 (DN1) between Făgăraș and Sibiu at 72.57 kilometres (45.09 mi) long and with an estimated cost of 614 mill. €.[2] In 2013, the Romanian government has reportedly changed the plans in order to provide the connection from Sibiu to Bucharest alternative to A1 via Pitești as part of the Trans European Transport Network,[3] thus implementing it as a motorway rather than expressway.[4]

Feasibility study is due to be redone by August 2018.[5] Optimistic opening date is 2023.
