The money will be used for the repair and reconstruction of the Komatevsko Shose Street and the boulevards Ruski and 6-ti Septemvri, as well as the construction of a new road from the Adata Bridge over the Maritsa River to Brezovsko Shose Street, according to reports of the Bulgarian Telegraph Agency (BTA).

The funding is to be absorbed in 3 years and repaid to the EBRD in 15 years at an interest rate of 2.65% and 1.18% Euribor and a 3-year grace period.

Complaints over the contractor selection process will be filed directly to the EBRD.
