The situation in Bulgaria is going back to normal after intense rainfalls caused floods and damage over the past days.

Regional Development Ministry plans to spend 1.3 million leva on the setting up of sewerage systems in all settlements located in the Vitosha mountain region.

Apart from the intense rainfalls, poor system condition caused damage, ministry representatives said.

Trakia highway was temporarily inaccessible due to the floods. Passage of vehicles has been renewed.

A number of villages still lack electricity and tap water because of the downpours, State Agency for Civil Defence (SACD) said.

The state of emergency previously declared in the Plovdiv region is still valid.

Dams are under constant monitoring. SACD said that the water level of rivers in the Pazardzhik region remains within limits.
