New Road Markings in Pazardzhik Blur Within Days of Being Applied

A new road marking in Pazardzhik is already smeared on the asphalt just days after its application. This is signaled by citizen Atanas Atanasov through posts on social networks, who shows photos from different sections and asks: “Or is this all we can do?”

In the filmed sections, it is visible that the relief paint has been spread and clear lines have not formed. Atanasov claims that the material itself is not the problem, but the execution technology – according to him, the work began before the paint had dried sufficiently. He says that the boulevard was completely closed to traffic in the direction toward “Tsar Osvoboditel” Blvd until the work was completed step by step and traffic redirected. So far there is no official information explaining the reason for the state of the markings.

Another shot shows road markings at an intersection which, according to Atanasov, look like they were placed about two weeks ago and still have not been applied with quality. He compares this stripe with a older section where, previously, the paint was allowed to dry before traffic was released. A similar scene is observed at a pedestrian crossing on Kocho Chestimenски Street, marked less than ten days ago, where it is claimed that traffic was resumed too early. According to Atanasov, the white areas with no traffic look better preserved.

“At least ordinary repair actions, such as applying markings, can be done with quality,” Pazardzhik resident notes. The signal comes amid similar problems with markings in other cities, with a recent case reported in Veliko Tarnovo. There it is stated that part of the white lines have faded and are linked to the type of paint used.
