In May 2015, Consortium “Geometro B.P.” (with Geostroy AD as leading partner and Geotechmin OOD and Metroproekt EOOD as members) finished the construction of Business Park Metro Station and an adjoining metro tunnel, part of the first metro line. Business Park Metro Station is the last of three metro stations, which comprise the metro extension from Mladost-1 District towards Business Park Sofia in Mladost-4 District under Sofia Metro Extension Project. .

The newly built 3 km long section was launched with an inauguration ceremony on 8 May. The event was attended by President of Bulgaria Rosen Plevneliev, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, European Commissioner Kristalina Georgieva, Mayor of Sofia Yordanka Fandakova and other official guests. The interior of Business Park Metro Station is conformed to the station’s main function – to serve both citizens of Mladost District and Business Park Sofia’s employees. Business Park Metro Station offers a two-level underground car park for about 100 cars. The new underground section is expected to be used by 45,000 passengers daily. Its construction has been funded under the Operational Programme “Transport 2007-2013” and co-financed by Sofia Municipality.
