Danube Bridge: Traffic Restored on Both Lanes for Easter, Next Phase of Repairs Begins After the Holidays

Tomorrow - April 9, around 6 PM, traffic will be restored in both lanes on the Danube Bridge near Ruse. The main repair of the closed 320-meter section in the lane towards Bulgaria is completed on schedule, and for the upcoming Easter holidays, traffic on the facility will be without restrictions. This ensures safe and convenient passage on the facility for all travelers.

The main repair of the bridge in its next stage will continue after Easter. It is planned that from 8 AM on April 14, the construction and installation works will begin in the last 320 meters of the facility, in the lane towards Romania. The estimated completion date is June 2026.

We remind you that the main repair of the Danube Bridge, which started on July 10, 2024, is carried out in stages and without stopping traffic. The section of the facility on Bulgarian territory has a total length of 1,057 km. Since its commissioning in 1954, such rehabilitation has not been carried out. Work is carried out daily on the site, depending on the meteorological conditions, and the working process is organized and carried out in such a way that vehicles pass in both directions in the lane where work is not being done.

Up-to-date information on the construction and installation works can be found in the special section "Information about the repair of the Danube Bridge" on the website of the "Road Infrastructure" Agency. The Agency's team provides regular up-to-date information on the repair of the facility and is available for additional questions and clarifications. This guarantees accurate, precise and correct information for all travelers.
