The reconstruction procedure along Bulgaria Blvd's railway cost approximately BGN 7 M no VAT included.
The NGO activists have also attached photographs to their report that depict the low quality of the reconstruction - broken tiles, bus stop constructions, broken rails and dangerous drainage system covers along the pavement.
The signal has also been sent to OLAF - the European Anti-Fraud Office.
The construction company that executed the project is SK-13 Transstroi and the process has been supervised by the municipal company Sofinvest.
Additionally, Save Sofia has stated on its website a further alarming fact - the same company is responsible for the reconstruction works currently taking place around the National Palace of Culture (NDK).
