Residents of Bansko, Razlog and Dobrinishte southwestern resorts have staged a blockade of E 79 in support of a proposed construction of a new ski lift in Pirin National Park.
Around 1000 protesters from southwestern Bulgarian resorts Bansko, Razlog and Dobrinishte have blocked the international E-79 road near the small town of Simitli, informs BGNES.
They demand from the Bulgarian government to approve of a construction project of a new ski lift and new ski slopes in Pirin National Park, reports BGNES.
