Methodology:

- Actualisation of Bulgary Road Network

- Classification of each road depending on the class and the financing source.

- Calculation of accessibility to motorways in operation and planned(ICON) within the actual bulgarian road network. Speeds considered are:

Motorways in operation: 110 km/h

Express ways and main roads first class: 85 km/h

Main roads: 70 km/h

Regional roads: 50 km/h
