Trains continue to be late. This is a topic that we will not deal with in the next year or two. We have to be realistic. The Minister of Transport Krasimira Stoyanova admitted this in the program “The Day Begins with Georgi Ljubenov” on BNT.
“I won’t make any promises, but the situation is not good. We will make efforts to make our railways more welcoming. When we deliver wagons, let’s read between the lines, because it turned out that we don’t have locomotives for the delivered wagons,” said Stoyanova.
She also appealed to the companies that constantly appeal the procedures. “Some with grounds, some with less, but they also delay the procedure,” she added. A week ago, Stoyanova appeared in a case before the Supreme Court.
“I’m not saying that soon there won’t be a third bridge on the Danube,” she commented on the big infrastructure projects. At the moment, the pre-project studies were starting. They moved at the end of the year and the selection procedure will be announced. According to her, the Schengen topic could motivate Bulgaria and Romania.
She pointed to the training of medical helicopter pilots as an important topic.
On the occasion of our first medical helicopter, he said that he performed the flights without any problems. The delivery of the second one will be in January 2025. “Let’s hope it’s not the next, but the last delay,” said Stoyanova.
