The main street Vasil Levski Str. in Veliko Tarnovo was open for traffic yesterday. Although the municipality announced last Friday that it was extending the repair work period on the main street until the end of January, the contractor eventually managed to complete the work. With the opening of the street, the teams will continue the excavation activities and the replacement of the pipes in the section in front of the Court House, which requires the closure of the northern lane. The traffic through the crossroads will be carried out in both directions along the southern lane.

The fee for household waste in the municipality of Veliko Tarnovo is increased from 1.2 to 1.7 per mille on the tax assessment of the property from 2022. The proposal of the administration was adopted at a meeting of the Municipal Council yesterday.
There will be a relief for households that introduce separate waste collection. The rates in the region have not changed for 10 years, but in the meantime the amount of the minimum wage has increased at least three times, and for the next year higher costs are expected in connection with the increase in electricity, fuel and water, which requires an increase in the garbage fee as well.
The Municipality of Gorna Oryahovitsa has started preparations for the construction of the Northern Bypass Road. It will connect Gorna Oryahovitsa and the Eastern Industrial Zone with the routes of Hemus Motorway and Ruse-Veliko Tarnovo Motorway. The first stage of the work is the design and preparation of a plot plan. A public procurement with two separate positions has been launched.
The main street “Vasil Levski” in Veliko Tarnovo will be closed for a month
As of Friday, the main street “Vasil Levski” in Veliko Tarnovo will be closed for a month, which will require a reorganization of the traffic in the city. The closure of the street is necessary due to the forthcoming excavation of this section in order to replace part of the collector pipe. This will significantly improve the drainage and will end the flooding of sidewalks, offices and shops during heavy rains.
The construction of the first of the two buffer parking lots in Veliko Tarnovo has started.
The investment for the construction of the parking lot amounts to BGN 900,000 without VAT and it will be situated under the Baldwin Tower – in the Frankhisar area. It is a part of the large project of the Municipality for integrated urban transport, and the contractor is “Road Construction-VT”. The parking lot will be located on an area of 6.3 decares, and the idea is for tourists to stop there and use the parking ticket to travel by electric buses without traffic jams. The three electric buses, which the Municipality bought for BGN 1.9 million, have already been delivered and located in a garage until the parking lot is built.
