Description of the city European Corridor № 4 (E79) crosses along Montana Municipality and passes through Montana city. In the near future is expected to start the construction of a ring road around Montana City. Montana city is located 50 km away from the European Corridor № 7 (Danube river), respectively 50 km away from the port of Lom. The distance between Montana and the second Danube Bridge at Vidin-Calafat, which will provide road access and rail links with the EU is 100 km. The bridge construction will be completed in September 2012. The distance to the nearest international airport is 120 km. Montana City is located along the railway line Boychinovtsi – Berkovitsa which is part of the national railway network. The total length of the railway line which passes along the municipality is 18 km. The railway station in Montana has available all the necessary technical facilities for bulk deliveries. The total length of the street network of Montana is 121, 4 km. The real centre of the town is a pedestrian zone and is closed to all vehicles. It consists of a square and parks located to the east and west direction. The main vehicles traffic is directed to the south of downtown. In the centre of the city is introduced an hourly parking fee for users of administrative, banking, legal and others services. The parking area consists of a square and four streets with about 200 parking spaces. There are two Industrial zones in the city. The main Industrial zone is located in the northeast part of the city and occupies about one third of the city area. The second industrial area is considerably smaller and is located to the east of the city. The traffic in the zone is not heavy. Output O3.2 Page 3 a 7 31/05/2012 1.2. Freight transport Infrastructure The transport infrastructure of Montana City is designed and constructed more than 50 years ago. There are two newly constructed bridges on the ring road, which at that area coincides with the E79 road. The ring road is not entirely constructed, so the transit traffic passes through part of the city. Load capacity of roadways is low and often light falls appear. During the last 20 years the roads and streets where heavy trucks go along were only rehabilitated. The main street, serving the industrial zone is not enough wide. The freight railway station is only partly used. The main reason is that with few exceptions, the plants in the town are micro and small and it is not effective to use railway transport. 1.3. Regulations applicable to Urban Freight Transport in Montana In Bulgaria is applied the Law for Road Traffic and its Implementing Rules. Montana Municipality has also a Regulation for the movement organization. There are road signs which prohibit the traffic of trucks with over 4 tons weight in the central part. Smaller trucks can access the centre at the conditions of a licensing regime, regulated by the local authorities 1.4. Major freight traffic problems The Industrial area of the city is served mainly by two streets and a boulevard. Most significant is the workload of the street “Industrial” which is the busiest street as the most plants’ entrances are located on it. The street is not sufficiently wide which makes the traffic and the access to the plants difficult. The lack of parking space additionally burdens the street with on-street loading/unloading. Because of that and the existing curves, the visibility is not good which hinders the traffic. The route of the transit trucks goes along the streets bordering the city centre which in addition makes the traffic busier during the weekdays. Output O3.2 Page 4 a 7 31/05/2012 2.

The role of the single stakeholders for city logistics The national, regional and local administrations must be the linker among the stakeholders and to get them together in order to inform them about their intentions regarding the C-LIEGE project. It will be very helpful for the admistrations if stakeholders share their ideas. Depending on administrations` possibilities and capacity they will support the implementation of the best practices and ideas for the region. 3. Existing practices Since more than fifteen years the Municipal administration of Montana issues paid permissions for freight vehicles that load and up load goods and deliver them to retailers. 4. Existing ideas about solutions and projects Possibilities from 1 st Round Table Checklist: - Introduction of differentiated fees for loading / uploading - Building a terminal for the redistribution of goods - Training the drivers of eco-driving 4.1. Introduction of differentiated fees for loading / uploading Regarding the financial measure “Vehicle financing schemes – Attractive, publicly subsidized financing (e.g. leasing) models” could stimulate freight operators to use more environmentally friendly freight vehicles. The proposal concerning this issue is that the government could establish different tax levels depending on the ecological fact of the vehicle transport. Output O3.2 Page 6 a 7 31/05/2012 4.2. Building a terminal for the redistribution of goods As a result of construction of such a terminal in the Industrial zone (located in the city suburbs) the number of the freight vehicles will decrease and the traffic and pollution will be deduced. The purpose is to upload the goods of the freight trucks at the terminal, where

  • CPT/Inf (2015) 12 Part
    CPT/Inf (2015) 12 part EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The CPT’s ninth visit to Bulgaria provided an opportunity to review the implementation of recommendations made after the Committee’s previous visits. Particular attention was paid to the treatment of persons in police custody and of juveniles in penitentiary establishments as well as of the conditions of detention and the provision of healthcare in prisons. The cooperation received by the Bulgarian authorities in the course of the visit was generally good. However, the principle of cooperation also requires that decisive action be taken to improve the situation in the light of the CPT’s key recommendations, and the CPT is seriously concerned by the fact that the vast majority of the Committee’s long-standing recommendations, some of them dating back to the very first periodic visit to Bulgaria in 1995, remain unimplemented. These include recommendations on ill-treatment (both in the police and prison context), inter-prisoner violence, prison overcrowding, material conditions of detention in investigation detention facilities (IDFs) and prisons, prison health-care, staffing levels, as well as discipline, segregation and contact with the outside world. In some cases, the situation has deteriorated since the 2010 and 2012 visits. The CPT is of the view that the time for words is over and that urgent and effective action must now be taken to address all these concerns. Consequently, in the light of the inaction to date, the CPT has decided to set in motion the procedure provided for in Article 10, paragraph 2, of the Convention. Policing The delegation received many allegations of deliberate physical ill-treatment of persons detained by the police (including juveniles and women), both at the time of apprehension and during questioning, consisting of slaps, punches, kicks and truncheon blows.
