Despite oppressive temperatures repairs to the city continue.

The hottest day of the year and Veliko Tarnovo workers continue to improve the city.  They are currently repairing streets and pavements around the city battling the high temperatures.  At a rapid pace they are repairing pavements on ‘Nikola Gabrovski’  and fixing the area around ‘Vasil Nevski (The Palace of Culture and Sport’.

The ‘Road Construction Crew Veliko Tarnovo’  continue to work hard work applying the second layer of asphalt on streets” Ceres “Tver”, “Toledo” and “Asti”.

As many of us flee to nearby swimming pools, air conditioned malls and other shady areas – stop and applaud the hard work from the various construction crews who are helping to make our city look as lovely as possible.

A blue mood over car parking

Complaints are flooding in about Blue Zone parking in Veliko Tarnovo.  Residents are resenting having to pay for parking outside their own homes.  The largest problems are occurring in the old part of town and directly in the centre.  The local administration explained that tourism brings in trade and therefore tourists must have somewhere to park close to amenities and attractions.

There is a petition from locals demanding that there are alternative solutions as to where to park their cars. There was a possibility of a small parking lot in front of Tsaravets, but there is an ongoing discussion about this issue.  Further to this point is an option to build new underground and surface parking lots, including multi-storey car parking to alleviate problems with the battle for car parking spaces.

Enjoy the summer – stay hydrated

Make sure you drink plenty of water to keep the body hydrated.  The hot weather is set to stay and is already affecting lots of people around Veliko Tarnovo.  The department of cardiology and rheumatology has seen an increase in patients over the last few days.  Those most at risk are those with heart problems and are warned to avoid being in direct sunshine from 10:00 to 17:00 in the afternoon, stay in cool rooms with air conditioning if possible, wear clothes made of natural fabrics, wear sunglasses and a hat.
Enjoy the summer – but do it sensibly.
