The figures have to be wrong.
The AADT means Annual average daily traffic. An AADT of 100 000 is about the maximum of what a 2x2 road can support (the bridge is 2x2), but the adjoining infrastructure (the roads that go from center-Bulgaria to Vidin and from center-Romania to Calafat) is just 1x2 and can't support such a traffic. As Chris stated, 100 000 vehicles per year is just 274 vehicles per day. A secondary county road has more traffic that this. I believe that it's just incompetent journalists that we see very often in the last years...

Well it's long long behind the first official schedule (2010?), but new expectations are that it should be ready till the end of this year.

Pictures are at least 10 days old, athough they are uploaded on the official site today. But still offer an interesting view of the finishing of connecting all parts of the main structure of the bridge, which now should be a fact...

Weekly update of the galleries of the official site of the contractor for Danube bridge at Vidin-Calafat (probably the pictures are at least few weeks older). Some of them don't open properly for the moment, but I leave the links with hope that this will be repaired.
