The major repair of the Danube Bridge near Ruse is proceeding on schedule. This became clear during a visit to the site by caretaker Minister of Regional Development and Public Works Nikolay Naydenov.

Work on the final 320 meters of the facility, in the lane toward Romania, began on April 14, 2026. The projected completion date for the repairs is June 2026.

The major repair of the Danube Bridge began on July 10, 2024, and has been carried out without stopping traffic. The section of the facility on Bulgarian territory has a total length of 1.057 km. Since it was put into operation in 1954, no such rehabilitation has been carried out, said the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works.
