The technical building of the toll system is on schedule, and in mid-August it will be ready to launch. This was announced yesterday in Vratsa by Regional Minister Petya Avramova, quoted by Econ.bg
From May, 15 will begin the testing of the individual components of the system, and their scope and size of the tariffs is yet to be discussed with the carriers.
According to the regional minister the toll system will cover half of the total 20,000 km national road network.
Some of the roads will have a zero rate due to their poor operating status.
The Regional Minister also explained that motorways are only 4% of the national road network.
Petya Avramova added that the highway from Vidin to Vratsa is also working actively. She added that a rehabilitation of the existing E-79 route from Vratsa to Mezdra is planned.
The rehabilitation of the road to the Ledenika Cave soon will be completed.
