They moved the work on “Hemus”, released the money for expropriation for 52 km





There will soon be permits for the sections near Pavlikeni

The work on the Hemus highway has not stopped completely – last week with a decision of the official cabinet the money was allocated for the payment of the expropriations under lot 4 and within a month – a month and a half they will be paid to the owners of lands along the route. This was announced to journalists by Deputy Minister of Regional Development and Public Works Ivan Shishkov.

Within a week, the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works will submit to the Council of Ministers the same proposal for lot 5. Thus

are unlocked

procedures

for a total of 52

kilometers

from the highway

– from the road junction “Pleven” to Pavlikeni. The implementation of the expropriations is a necessary step in order to be able to issue a construction permit and to start the construction of these sections legally, Shishkov stressed.

There is a ready technical project for these two lots, but they have not been worked on so far, because there was no permit issued by the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works, because it is a site of national importance.

However, it is still not possible to start the construction of the next sections – the one between Pavlikeni and Veliko Tarnovo and the next ones to Belokopitovo, where

the highway

arrived before

several years

For two of these three sections the EIA procedures are still ongoing and in practice there is no ready report, although for the last section there is a ready technical project, which has been accepted by the contracting authority – Road Infrastructure Agency. Until a ready EIA report is ready, a building permit cannot be issued.

Practically all materials for the construction of Hemus

are handed over to

the prosecution,

twice. The acting regional minister Violeta Komitova once stated that she did this because of the money paid in advance to subcontractors of the state company Avtomagistrali EAD. A few weeks later, then-caretaker Minister Asen Vassilev said he had done the same. So far there is no announcement from the prosecutor’s office what he is doing on the materials.

“Unfortunately, the irregularities we found on Hemus are repeated during the construction of the Botevgrad-Vidin highway, as well as on the future Ruse-Veliko Tarnovo highway. We have sections where construction is noisy and how much work is advertised. But in reality it is only in certain areas “, said the deputy of Komitova arch. Шишков.

There will be permits soon

for the sections to Pavlikeni
