According to information from ‘Za Gabrovo’, the published capital expenditure programme sets out the projected funding for projects in the region over the next three years.
The Gabrovo bypass project, including a tunnel beneath Shipka Peak, has no funding allocated for 2027. For 2028, €25,273.1 thousand has been allocated, and for 2029 – €33,520.7 thousand, totalling €58,793.8 thousand. In the previous programme for 2026–2028, the amounts allocated to the same project were different.
For the Byala Dam, the programme allocates €255,000 for 2027 and €200,000 for 2028, earmarked for pre-investment studies and technical documentation. No funds have been allocated for the construction of the dam. The dam is linked to the water supply for the municipalities of Gabrovo, Sevlievo and Dryanovo.
The largest allocation of funds for this purpose is earmarked for the municipalities of Sevlievo and Dryanovo, with funding from the Interdepartmental Commission for Reconstruction and Support under the Council of Ministers. Specifically for Gabrovo, over 221,000 euros have been earmarked, including for road projects in the town.
The inclusion of projects in the programme does not in itself mean that funding has been secured or that construction will begin within the specified timeframes.
What does that mean?
- Companies involved in the construction and design of road infrastructure should bear in mind that funding for the Gabrovo bypass is not scheduled until 2028.
- The studies for the Byala Dam may create limited opportunities for firms specialising in engineering surveys and technical documentation, but no construction work is planned.
In numbers
- 58,793.8 thousand euros Gabrovo bypass and Shipka tunnel – total for 2028–2029
- €255,000 for the Byala Hydropower Station – feasibility studies for 2027
- €200,000 for the Byala Hydropower Station – feasibility studies for 2028
- Nearly 2.3 million euros for Sevlievo – funds from the Interdepartmental Commission
