The installation of the new electric vehicles charging station is another step in the mission started years ago by BPI Co. to turn the seaside town into a modern port with European vision.  One of the last modernizations was carried out in 2016 with the renovation of the Magazia 1, and the reconstructed emblematic building was awarded the “City Projects – Transport Infrastructure - Burgas” award in the competition “Building of the Year 2016“. The area around the Passenger Terminal, the Traffic Tower and the Yacht Club was also cultivated. The European vision of the port was complemented by the construction of a new road to the Passenger Terminal building with roundabouts, new sidewalks, quay pavement and green areas, parking lots for busses and automobiles, and a bicycle alley. After the reconstruction, free access zone of the port became even more attractive place for the Burgas guests and citizens.
