Sofia to Varna road rehabilitation begins

All motorists travelling on the Sofia–Varna road are advised to pay special attention to the rehabilitation works which have commenced on August 31 and are scheduled to last until October 30.

According to a press release from the National Road Infrastructure Agency (NRIA), traffic will be diverted on several sections of the road affected by the working process immediately, with additional sections to follow, to be announced in due course.

Initially, the Kazandjii Dere segment near Tsar Kaloyan will have the left section (en route to Varna) of the road sealed off for repairs and all traffic will be diverted to the right. Furthermore, near Stublata, traffic will also be diverted to the right, while starting on September 2 the right part of the motorway from Sofia to Varna will be closed with only the left side operational.

All areas affected by the reconstruction works will be marked by the NRIA and the temporary organisation and procession of traffic will be conducted by NRIA officials on the ground. All motorists are advised to be exceptionally cautious and abide by speed limits.
