Kubrat-Gara Samuil. (N4332 E2644), approximately 50 kilometers; and
Kubrat-Ses:t.av (N4352 E2644), eight kilometers..
With the exception of the Kubrat Tutrakan highway, which is in a state of
disrepair these roads are in-good condition. They are all-weather roads,
six meters wide, flanked by drainage ditches 50 centimeters deep and 60 to
100 centimeters wide. The surface is of crushed rock 20 centimeters thick
over a base of large rocks. All roads are used for both passenger and freight
traffic.
Although Kuhrat is allegedly becoming increasingly important as an agricu:L-
tural center, there are no railroad lines in the immediate vicinity of the
city and no plans-for a railway have been'formulated, The nearest lines
are the Ruse.-Gara Samuel-Kaspichan and the Gara Samuil-lsperikh, both of
which are used mainly for freight traffic. The Gara Samuil-Isperikh line,
which was completed in 1949, is the first section of the projected Gara
Samuil-isperikh-Sil.istra line

tive Agrarian Farm) was organized in Gorichevo (N4351 E2627). One hundred
families of the 250 families in the village are members; however, the TKZS
farms more land than do the 150 independent farmers.
The machinery used by the village TKZS is borrowed from the State Machine
Station in Kubrato
