Navigation conditions along the River Danube will be improved with the EUR 10 million European project DISMAR, the Bulgarian news agency BTA reports, quoting Ivelin Zanev, CEO of the Executive Agency "Exploration and Maintenance of the Danube River" in Rouse.
“This is the first joint project being implemented only by our agency and our colleagues from the Romanian agency under the cross-border cooperation programme,” Ivelin Zanev says.
Within the space of 3 years, the two institutions in Bulgaria and Romania will work jointly to implement an innovative and integrated system for designating the shipping route in the shared section of the river. Floating and riverside signs will be provided, as well as a non-self-propelled river vessel to service them.
The river border between Bulgaria and Romania is 470 kms. long. “After the project for improving navigation along the Danube is put in place, the single integrated marking system will provide data, in real time, of the state of the floating and the riverside signs in the shared Bulgarian-Romanian section,” Ivelin Zanev adds.
