The project will contribute to the renewal of the technical infrastructure, ensuring accessibility, attractiveness, supporting sustainable growth, social inclusion and a higher quality of life, including an environmentally friendly environment.

The municipal councilor Mr. Martin Kolev wanted to know more about whether there is a place for the campers, who held their fair in Dimitrovgrad every year, asphalting of a bypass street around the dike, as well as whether this is the interest rate set for the loan agreement. Mayor Ivo Dimov explained that all contracts of the municipality are at 2.5% agreed interest rate and the expectations and intentions are now to be agreed and that no asphalting of the terraces of the dam, which are public property. For the campers the conditions will become even better because they are located on the existing alley network in the central part of the park, which will be completely renovated according to the project.
