Bulgarian highway faces construction delays

In Bulgaria questions hang over the construction of a section of the Struma Highway. Greek construction company 1570 Aktor was originally awarded the contract for Lot 4 of the Struma Highway but work on the project slipped behind schedule. The delays seen so far with the project have not been well received within the Bulgarian Government. The work was supposed to have been completed around the end of 2014 or the beginning of 2015 and the country’s transport ministry has said that work on the highway cannot be delayed any further.
