Firms that have failed to clean road sections in Eastern Bulgaria during the night will be fined 5,000 leva per hour for the time of non-performance. This was ordered by the Minister of Regional Development and Public Works Ivan Ivanov to the management of the “Road Infrastructure“ Agency after on-site inspections and signals from citizens.
For its part, the road agency has taken special measures in relation to the areas for which an orange code was declared. Among the additional actions are a concentration of cleaning equipment and intensive treatments of the road surface (without intervals between treatment times). This operating mode was approved by Minister Ivanov for the time until 9:00 p.m., when temperatures are expected to drop, and the goal is to limit icing of the road surface as much as possible.
