In 2019, Bombardier won another major contract to design and install an INTERFLO 250 ERTMS Level 1 signalling and telecommunication system along 300 km of the Plovdiv-Burgas railway line – one of the most important rail signalling projects in Europe in recent years.
Bombardier Transportation Bulgaria LLC is a 100 per cent Bombardier Transportation legal entity, located in the Bulgarian capital on Sofia. It is managed by the members of the board of directors: Costel Antonello Grozea, Managing Director, Marco Palazzo, Managing Director, Erika Gomez, Director and Daniel Proychev, Director. This group of talented professionals with local knowledge is looking forward to continue contributing their rail expertise in Bulgaria while expanding Bombardier’s presence in this strategic market.
