Outbound truck traffic is intense at the Kapitan Andreevo and Lesovo border checkpoints on the Bulgaria-Turkiye border, reported the Border Police. The information is as of 9:00 am this morning. Temporarily, passage through the Malko Tarnovo checkpoint is carried out on one lane due to reconstruction works.

Traffic at all border checkpoints with the Republic of North Macedonia and Serbia is normal.

The Border Police remind that traffic will be suspended on the Danube Bridge near Ruse on March 27. Due to major repairs to the facility, passage for light vehicles will be restricted for 12 hours—from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm on March 27, and for heavy vehicles for 24 hours—from 9:00 am on March 27 until 9:00 am on March 28.

''Due to the increased interest in traveling on the Rudozem - Xanthi destination, we inform citizens that construction activities are underway on the road on the Greek side. The Greek authorities have placed signs indicating that the terrain is a construction site and that outsiders are not allowed to enter the site'', wrote the Border Police.

Only cars and vans up to 3.5 tons are allowed to pass through the border crossings in the areas of BCP's Makaza, Zlatograd and Ivaylovgrad.
