53% of all trips of Bulgarian haulers will be made without cargo or revenues for the company and 14,000 people will lose their jobs by 2023 if the EU adopts the Mobility 1 package without taking into consideration Bulgaria’s position, data of sociological survey of KPMG global network presented at the Bulgarian Ministry of Transport read.

They receive an average monthly salary of EUR 1,750. In 2018 a total of 25,800 Bulgarian cargo vehicles operated in Europe.
