Jablanica to the intersection with road II-35 (Nikopol - Pleven - Lovech - Troyan - Karnare); its length is about 59 km; Stage 2 - includes sections 3, 4 and 5, starting after the junction with road II-35 to intersection with road I-5 (Rousse - Kardzhali - Horseshoe); its length is about 85 km; Stage 3 - includes sections 6, 7 and 8, starting after the junction with the road I-5 and ends at the eastern part of the 'Hemus' highway, which is under construction; its length is about 108 km. Methodology: For the project identified the following activities for the preparation of the track for completion: Preparation of feasibility studies to complete the "Hemus" highway. The aim of the research is all the proposed variants over the years to justify a single preferred option. As of. May 2014 the activity is completed. Conceptualization to complete the 'Hemus' highway on priority etapi.Na this stage is developing the chosen option, involving detailed transverse and longitudinal sections, etc., Prepared quantity and detailed estimate of construction costs. As a result of this phase should be confirmed chosen design solution, its type and location. The level of detail should be such as to ensure that the possibility of applying the follow legal procedures for approval, including the requirements for environmental protection, fire and emergency safety. The work on conceptual designs for the three stages are assigned respectively in the month. April 2014 Stage 1 in m. July 2014 Stage 2 and Stage 3 in m. In November 2014 in three lots. Preparation of the EIA report and DOSV to complete the highway "Hemus" (Jablanica-Belokopitovo). After completion of the feasibility study is tasked with developing a report on EIA and DOSV for the entire route of the project. In m. July 2015 was issued EIA Decision for the entire route to complete "Hemus" highway. Formulated measures to reduce the harmful effects of the next phase will be included in the scope of work of the contractors for additional design and construction. Performing preliminary archaeological studies - search for archaeological sites to complete the "Hemus" highway.

    TRANSITION REPORT COUNTRY ASSESSMENTS: BULGARIA 01 2019-20 BETTER GOVERNANCE, BETTER ECONOMIES Highlights BULGARIA • Growth has remained solid during 2019. The economy grew by an estimated 3.1 per cent in 2018, following an average growth rate of 3.8 per cent in 2015-17. The economy grew robustly at 4.2 per cent year-on-year in the first half of 2019. • Reforms in the energy sector have continued. Bulgaria is also developing a number of gas infrastructure projects, with the aim of becoming a major gas hub and transit route in the region. • Steps have been taken to advance Bulgaria’s integration into the financial architecture of the European Union (EU). Bulgaria is aiming to join the eurozone and has officially announced its intention to join the European Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM II) and the EU’s banking union simultaneously. Key priorities for 2020 • Reforms needed to prepare the country for joining ERM II and the EU’s banking union should be stepped up. While Bulgaria consistently meets the macroeconomic requirements to become part of ERM II, the authorities should remain committed to key structural reforms needed to achieve this goal. • Bulgaria should continue working on implementation of the commitments within the framework of the EU’s Cooperation and Verification Mechanism (CVM). According to the latest CVM report, the European Commission considers that the progress made by Bulgaria under the mechanism is sufficient to meet the country’s commitments made at the time of its accession to the EU. • Reforms on improving the business environment need to be implemented.

  • Transition Report 2019-20 Better Governance, Better Economies
    TRANSITION REPORT COUNTRY ASSESSMENTS: ALBANIA 01 2019-20 BETTER GOVERNANCE, BETTER ECONOMIES Highlights ALBANIA • Growth accelerated in 2018, but has slowed in 2019. After 4.1 per cent growth in 2018, the economy grew by just 2.4 per cent year-on-year in the first half of 2019, the slowdown being primarily due to weaker power generation. • Despite primary surpluses in recent years, public debt remains high. Over the past year, the debt excluding arrears has been hovering around 68.0 per cent of GDP, even without taking into account the potentially significant costs of unsolicited public-private partnerships (PPPs). • The banking sector has undergone further consolidation. At the same time, there is an ongoing shift in ownership away from eurozone banks towards domestic and foreign non-EU (European Union) owners. Non-performing loans (NPLs) have halved since 2014 but still remain at double-digit levels. Key priorities for 2020 • Legitimate businesses need further government efforts to tackle informality and level the playing field. Informality remains one of the most important obstacles for doing business, and further measures are needed to tackle the problem. Measures include a simplified tax system and procedures, and strengthened capacities for inspections and the fight against corruption and bribery in public administration. • The government should focus on improving standards of fiscal and public governance. Issues that need urgent attention include improving the conduct of PPPs and strengthening institutions and the rule of law. In addition, energy sources should be diversified by reducing the country’s dependency on hydro generation and continuing reforms to improve governance and transparency in the power sector.
