Line 3 of the Sofia metro will not be operational this weekend because new software is to be installed. 10 trains without passengers will be tested along the track. The test data will be sent to a German laboratory for the issuance of a certificate allowing the line to be used by passengers.

As an alternative, there will be buses running along the route of line 3 of the metro. For the convenience of the travelling public the bus stops will be in immediate proximity to the metro stations.
