The condition of 19-year-old Kaloyan, who was injured on the road from Vitosha after a branch heavy with snow fell on his car, remains serious, bTV reported.

The young man is in the intensive care unit of the largest emergency hospital "Pirogov", and doctors are making efforts to stabilize him.

Late last night, the Sofia Municipality informed that they are increasing the requirements for the cleaning company on Vitosha and strengthening measures to ensure access to the mountain.

After a meeting in the municipality, a decision was made to close both roads for major cleaning. This happened between three o'clock this night and seven in the morning.

It is still unclear who is responsible for maintaining and pruning dangerous trees along the road, after the "Vitosha" Nature Park announced yesterday that this is not within their authority.
