The project is one of the measures needed for the completion of the new airport project in the capital, Focus news agency reported.
On July 24 Transport Minister Petar Moutafchiev attended the launch of work on the new road.
Several days ago the Transport Ministry and the company responsible for airport construction, Strabag, signed a document according to which the new airport terminal could start partial work in the end of August or beginning of September.
By the end of the year the second phase of the project should be completed, Moutafchiev said.
The road section should be finished within one year. Work could be completed sooner, Moutafchiev said. The ministry is still negotiating ownership over some of the plots through which the road would pass.
An agreement with the owners would be reached soon, said Moutafchiev, so that the plots became state property.
