Romania: long lines of trucks packed

On both sides of Danube bridge border crossing

04 August, 16:47
(ANSA) - ROMA, 04 AGO - Heavy traffic at the Danube Bridge border crossing from Ruse has formed a queue of about 10 km of heavy trucks waiting to cross the river. Queues in Romania waiting to enter Bulgaria on the other side are nearly 13 km long, border crossing staff said Thursday. The lack of alternative routes to Central Europe and Ukraine is the reason for the heavy traffic in recent months, with 1,374 trucks crossing into Romania and 1,233 trucks entering Bulgaria in the past 24 hours. All services at the border checkpoint are operating at full capacity. Trucks line the road section between Ruse and Marten, along the main road to Silistra and the city's Bulgarian International Boulevard. (ANSA).
