The waste left by drivers of cargo vehicles in the region near the Bulgaria-Turkey border, which was until recently packed with TIR trucks, has been already removed, the management of Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint told the Bulgarian National Radio. Earlier, TIR tricks were redirected towards the buffer parking launched on the former military airport Uzundjovo. A twenty-kilometer section of the motorway and the adjacent two-meter strip of land was cleaned of waste. 14 thermal imaging cameras were installed at the border checkpoint to control all passengers.
