Drivers traveling on the Struma highway should be prepared for temporary traffic during planned night repair activities in the Golemo Buchino tunnel during the second week of August.
The first night intervention is scheduled from 10:00 PM on August 13 (Wednesday) to 6:00 AM on August 14 (Thursday). During this period, traffic in the tube towards Kulata will be completely stopped due to large-scale wall and road surface cleaning.
Immediately after the first activity, the next night - from 10:00 PM on August 14 to 6:00 AM on August 15 (Friday), tunnel walls will be painted. During both periods, the alternative route will pass through the tube to Sofia, where traffic will be organized in both directions.
Experts from the Road Infrastructure Agency have deliberately chosen night hours because traffic during this time is significantly lower. Official representatives strongly appeal to drivers to show exceptional caution, follow the placed road signage, and avoid risky maneuvers.
