According to him, then representatives of the trade union organizations will go to the depots and talk to the people there, Nova TV reports.
„They have an invitation at 8 a.m. "We will continue the talks on Monday, but this meeting will only take place if there is understanding and both ground transport and the metro start moving, so that Sofia residents do not have to become hostages to our talks," the mayor said.
The local government has discussed with the unions the possibilities for financing the demands of the employees in the capital's public transport. “Every single thing we do has a price at the expense of something else. We cannot, by solving one problem or injustice, create new ones”, Terziev was categorical.
The metro promised at 7 p.m. to express a clear position on the issue of whether it will work on Friday or not. “Metropolitan“ works perfectly and professionally. I thank all the employees who work around the clock. We united around the idea of national responsibility and the public need - to have public transport in the capital. We will offer the best possible transport service. At 7 p.m. our position will be disseminated to all media," said the head of the municipal company. According to him, the salary of a metro worker is 2,200 leva
