It's a shame that the internet is a virtual medium, because there are a lot of people out there that I'd like to express my deep feelings of friendship to, and having spent the last two years here in Serbia, I'd like to do it in a truly Serbian way.
Bulgaria Danube Port Upgrades Facilities
Sofia | 26 May 2009 |
Svishtov Port
The overhaul was due to becomeoperational on Monday, May 25, investor.bg has reported.
A new railway line is also currently under construction designed serve the east zone of the port. So far, that rail project has absorbed an investment of more than five million leva.
The new terminal centre on the Danube river is strategic because it is the closest docking and distribution area for cargo destined for Sofia, Plovdiv and Stara Zagora as well as most of central and northern Bulgaria. Consequently, that makes the container service and distribution service in Svishtov the cheapest in Bulgaria, reaching most of the country.
Svishtov port, which serves most of northern, central and even southern Bulgaria, is likely to expand its operational capacity in the future, as interest emanating from Macedonia and Kosovo has increased substantially.
Both countries have used the Thessaloníki port in Greece until now, but they have reportedly faced growing obstacles and so they're seeking a cheaper and more reliable alternative.
