The Bulgarian Intermodal Market
Lack of Terminal and Intermodal Infrastructure in Bulgaria
- five Trans-European transport corridors across the Balkans (IV, VII, VIII, IX и X);
- Bulgaria has - huge potential for combined transport - intermodal terminals in the region are few and are not used (except for a few units per month in Sofia Tovarna, Rousse and Stara Zagora)
- existing maritime container traffic - Varna Port
- Sofia- Thessaloniki, Plovdiv and Burgas, Varna and Maritsa East – all on road
