More than 80 million leva will be invested in road reconstruction in Shoumen area by end-2009, regional governor Todor Todorov said on March 10 2008, as quoted by Bulgarian news agency (BTA).

The first tranche, 10.4 million leva, has already been transferred. It is earmarked for the rehabilitation of second-class roads between the villages of Radko Dimitrievo-Hrabrovo, Hitrino-Struino, Vekilski-Nikola Kozlevo and Venets-Yassenkovo, he said.

The necessary financing to repair two lanes of Hemus highway in the Kaspichan-Nevsha village section has been secured, as well, Todorov added.

Construction on the new highway section between Shoumen and the village of Belokopitovo is expected to start in August. Repair works on the main thoroughfares Silistra-Yambol and Shoumen-Karnobat, funded under a programme for transit roads programme, will start in the summer.
