Early this morning on the Trakia highway, a serious traffic accident occurred, which is currently paralyzing traffic in the direction of Burgas. At the 118th kilometer, a large truck loaded with produce overturned, leading to serious consequences for traffic.
Chaos on the road: Potatoes and asphalt everywhere
Due to the high speed at which the vehicle was traveling, the machine literally crushed the median lanes (central dividers) on both sides of the road. As a result of the impact, the truck spun in the opposite direction of travel, covering the road with tons of goods and scattering asphalt.
“Currently, passage through the area is extremely slow, only in the overtaking lane. A large traffic jam has formed.”
What's happening right now?
- Work of the services: Teams from the Road Infrastructure Agency (API) and the Traffic Police are already working at the scene.
- Traffic: Drivers should be extremely careful, as traffic is severely hampered.
- Duration: The operation to tow the truck and clean the road will continue until early afternoon.
It is strongly recommended that drivers plan alternative routes or be prepared for a long wait in the traffic jam.
