Changes

'''UPDATE August 2016''' - Successfully walked across the bridge, border guards confirming it was possible but advising to be careful. Footpath exists on both sides but may be obstructed in parts, meaning you must walk on the road. I advise against doing this if it is dark. Takes 30-40 minutes. Good hitch hiking spot for travellers entering Romania (e.g. going to Bucharest) exists immediately after border control on the Romanian side

'''UPDATE August 2022''' - I successfully walked across the border on foot from Romanian side. No need to walk on the road on the bridge. It is completely viable and safe to walk on footpath there. I've seen people doing the same entering to Romania. There is a free restroom on Bulgarian side. Guards were friendly.
