The establishment of this helipad allows for the swift evacuation of individuals involved in traffic accidents or facing other emergency situations within the tunnel section and the surrounding region. According to information provided by the aviation operator "Bulgaria Heli Med Service," in response to a distress signal, a helicopter can reach the "Zheleznitsa" tunnel from Sofia within a 30-minute timeframe.
