On April 20, 2009 Opulchenska Street which was reconstructed by Roads and Equipment EAD was put into operation.

The subsidiary company carried out construction works at the road section from Alexander Stamboliyski Blvd to Todor Alexandrov Blvd. At this stage of reconstruction, two 10.5-meters wide roadways, 1-meter wide dividing strip as well as 2 and 4-meters wide sidewalks were built. As a result, the road now consists of three 3.5-meters wide traffic lanes for each direction. New sewerage and water mains were built. Reconstruction of cables (low and medium voltage) and traffic lights was also conducted, and the street lighting and the overhead contact network were renewed. Moreover, a new telephone line system was made and landscaping works were carried out.

The reconstruction of Opulchenska Str. is important for Sofia with a view to the heavy traffic in the capital’s center. The widening of the road will ease the traffic at rush hours, especially during the current construction of the subway due to which the main car stream runs on Opulchenska Str.
