Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov assigned the Chairman of the Management Board of the "Road Infrastructure" Agency, Eng. Yordan Valchev, to urgently restore the lighting in the "Crooked Tunnel", which passes through the Kresna Gorge. The deadline set by the Prime Minister is seven calendar days. The reason for this is the numerous signals from citizens and local authorities.
Prime Minister Zhelyazkov ordered urgent action to ensure the safety of cars and people passing through the tunnel as soon as possible.
Prime Minister Zhelyazkov also assigned the replacement of the missing or compromised dividing posts through the Kresna Gorge. The Prime Minister pointed out that the effectiveness of the flexible barriers has been proven in recent years and statistics show that after their installation, serious road accidents in the gorge have decreased dramatically and no deaths have been recorded.
