Sofia public transport workers will protest on Monday, April 14, demanding increase in wages. The decision to protest was made after meetings between the industry and the Sofia Municipality. The transport workers do not agree with the municipality's proposed salary increase of 100 leva (about 50 euros). 

Three key intersections in Sofia will be blocked - Orlov Most, Macedonia and the intersection of Dragan Tsankov Blvd. and Evlogi and Hristo Georgievi Blvd.

From the three points, the workers will move and gather in front of the Ministry of Finance, and then in front of the Sofia Municipality.
