This year the city of Burgas has fully renovated its public transport trolley system with 22 new vehicles. Thus Burgas became the first city in Bulgaria to ever change its trolley fleet at once.It is in the process of building 60 km of bike lanes .
We created the first solar charging station for electric vehicles that the citizens of Burgas can use for free. The solar station is a first step of an integrated regional system that provides free energy for electric vehicles. The system allows the free movement between municipalities in the region.
Car-free day
Burgas carries out a Car-free day 2014 and closes off one or more streets to traffic, and opens it to pedestrians, cyclists and public transport.
