The Silistra-Calarasi ferry line, operated by a Romanian carrier, has resumed operation since March 15. The border checkpoint activity at the Silistra Ferry checkpoint has also been restored, Bulgaria's Ministry of Transport announced.
By a decision of the Municipal Council in Silistra, the movement of trucks weighing over 3.5 tonnes on the street road network of the regional town is temporarily suspended. These trucks will not be able to cross the Silistra-Ostrov joint border crossing. They will be able to pass through the Silistra Ferry checkpoint or other crossings between Bulgaria and Romania. Only cars and buses will pass through the Silistra-Ostrov border crossing.
