The modernization of infrastructure and the transport network are very important for the development of Vidin Region, Vazrazhdane top-of-the-list candidate Vera Aleksandrova said on Friday.

The outdated Replyana - Chuprene water supply system used by four municipalities must be renovated. Aleksandrova stressed that she had repeatedly alerted the institutions about the poor condition of the pipes, which need frequent and expensive repairs. 

Aleksandrova said that the completion of the border crossing between the Bulgarian village of Salash and the Serbian village of Novo Korito has a huge potential for the development of Bulgaria's transport routes in the region. "With the opening of the crossing, connectivity between Northwestern Bulgaria and Eastern Serbia will improve," she noted.

According to Aleksandrova, a comprehensive state strategy is needed to improve the sports facilities: "Great athletes and champions have trained at the Rowing Centre in Vidin, but it is badly in disrepair."
