The goal of the project is to strengthen a heavily eroded embankment trench in close proximity to the Plovdiv – Burgas railway line, in the section between the village of Bulgarovo and the town of Aytos. The rock slopes range from 20 to 50 meters in height and are severely eroded, with individual block sizes ranging from 1 to 2 m³. Over the years, numerous landslides have been recorded, causing incidents and damage to infrastructure. The project is part of the overall modernization of the Plovdiv – Burgas railway line, funded under the EU Operational Programme “Transport.” Its implementation aims to improve and develop the national railway infrastructure and integrate it with the European Union’s transport network.
High-strength elastic barriers for rock block containment were installed, provided by the Italian company Geoprotection;
