Slovak Rail Operator Denies Procurement Violations on Tvrdošovce-Palárikovo Line

Železnice Slovenskej republiky (ZSR) has publicly rejected allegations that it bypassed public procurement law by splitting contracts during the modernization of the Tvrdošovce-Palárikovo railway line. The company asserts it followed a stricter procedure than required. The allegations, if substantiated, could indicate procurement irregularities in a major infrastructure project, but the denial is unverified and the outcome of any investigation remains unclear.
