Since then, the structure has not only connected Bulgaria and Romania but has also established itself as one of the most important strategic and economic corridors linking Southeast Europe with Central and Western Europe.

The Balance Sheet in Figures and Facts:

• Millions of vehicles crossed: Over these 13 years, traffic has exceeded even the most optimistic initial forecasts, proving the bridge's pivotal role in international transport.

• Economic impulse: The "New Europe" bridge has shortened distances, facilitated trade, and given a new boost to business relations across the entire cross-border region.

• Ecology and efficiency: The hours saved by skipping ferry wait times have translated into lower carbon emissions and faster, safer delivery of goods.

   

Thank you!

Behind the success of this massive structure lies the round-the-clock hard work of dozens of specialists, engineers, maintenance staff, and control authorities who ensure safety and smooth traffic flow every day of the year.

We also thank all the drivers and travelers who choose our bridge as part of their journey!

Happy Anniversary to all colleagues, partners, and residents of Vidin and Calafat! We continue to build bridges and connect people.
