Bulgaria menține taxa de trecere pentru autoturismele care traversează podul peste Dunăre, deși România a eliminat-o

Bulgaria will maintain a toll for cars crossing the Ruse and Vidin bridges, despite Romania abolishing it for the Giurgiu bridge. This decision, confirmed by Bulgarian Transport Minister Gheorghi Peev, has raised concerns among local politicians who advocate for the toll's removal to enhance traffic flow and improve infrastructure. Romania's rationale for eliminating the toll was based on its minimal revenue impact, which could be offset by heavy vehicle tolls. The Bulgarian toll remains at 2 euros for cars, while buses and trucks face higher fees. Local officials emphasize the need for electrification of the railway line and better road conditions at border crossings, highlighting the economic drawbacks of the current toll system. They argue that improved connectivity with Romania is essential for regional economic growth.
