THE OPENING OF THE BORDER CHECKPOINT RUSE - GIURGIU - FERRY IS PENDING

The opening of the state Bulgarian-Romanian border at the Ruse-Giurgiu-Ferry border checkpoint is pending. The opening of the checkpoint is a condition for the resumption of the ferry line Ruse - Giurgiu. This is expected to help ease road traffic on the Bulgarian-Romanian border and overcome the difficulties of cross-border transport of passengers and goods between Bulgaria and Romania. The border checkpoint is expected to serve passengers and motor vehicles transported by ships between Ruse and Giurgiu. The main burden today is borne by the "Danube Bridge" near Ruse - Giurgiu. Part of the cargo flow is directed to "Danube Bridge - 2" near Vidin - Calafat. The ferry between Silistra and Calarasi has also been operating since last year.
