Traffic on Trakia Motorway is stopped due to a fire

Traffic on the Trakia motorway is temporarily restricted in the section from km 26 to km 27, in the direction of Sofia. The reason for the traffic suspension is heavy smoke resulting from burning vegetation immediately next to the roadway, announced the Road Infrastructure Agency (RIA).

Drivers of motor vehicles are urged to wait on site and follow the instructions of the "Traffic Police" teams.

This is another incident in the area, and we remind you that just yesterday a fire broke out in the same place again, which hindered the passage of cars.
