The Pass of the Republic has been temporarily closed to traffic.
A Turkish lorry overturned just before the summit of the pass on July 2. No one was injured. The vehicle's cargo has spilled onto the road.
Until the road has been cleared, cars will be diverted via the Shipka Pass, while heavy goods vehicles are being held at the scene.
