VisitBulgaria.net, 16 May 2007

The green variant for the trace of the future highway “Cherno More”, which is to connect Bourgas and Varna, was approved, the transport minister Petar Mutavchiev said.
The highway is planned to start from Vetren, pass through Rudnik Quarter, the villages of Laka, Kamenar, Kableshkovo, Tankovo and Kosharitsa, and to come out at Obzor Resort.

Transport connection between Hemus Highwy and Cherno More Highway is also planned. Along the whole highway there will be only one tunnel, which will be about 1 km long and will be situated between Obzor and Sveti Vlas.

The highway will be 100 km long and its construction will cost 320 million EUR.

At the end of last year another transport project, a 26 km-long road from Bourgas to Sunny Beach was announced. The road will be part of the future highway and will make easier the traffic to the largest beach resort on the Southern Black Sea coast. Its construction should be finished in three years.
