Drivers heading to Sofia on the Trakia motorway can use only the fast lane between the 3km and 1km marks until 13 November, the Road Infrastructure Agency (API) said.

The stretch is in Sofia region. The agency is repairing the asphalt in places, so the driving lane and the emergency lane are closed.

Crews are also repairing asphalt on the carriageway towards Burgas, between the 84km and 86km marks. Traffic there is arranged differently until 17:00.

The agency advises drivers to take care, follow the rules, keep to the speed limit and not risk overtaking.

On 10 November we reported that the restriction on the carriageway towards Burgas between the 84km and 86km marks in Pazardzhik region would apply on 11 November from 7:30 to 17:00. Cars were using the fast lane on a 2km stretch.

Up-to-date road information is on the agency's website and on the phone line 0700 130 20, which works around the clock.
