Travel time to Moscow Central Circle between stations. New metro scheme - MKZh. Train schedule TPU Gagarin Square

We built it for you
Extra time

The Moscow Central Circle is part of the transport system of the future capital.
It gives the city an alternative to choosing new routes, reduces the load on the metro and train stations in the city center and makes a trip around Moscow an average 20 minutes Briefly speaking.

About the MCC project

The city train is a new type of public transport that appeared in the capital on September 10, 2016 with the opening of the Moscow Central Circle (MCC).

New generation Lastochka trains run along the railway ring during metro operation. You won’t have to wait more than 6 minutes for an electric train during rush hours, and you can change to the metro for free - the MCC has the same pass as the metro.

Marat Khusnullin, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction:

The launch of traffic on the Moscow Central Circle is a breakthrough project for the capital. The MCC will build a new transport logistics system in the city. There will be a redistribution of transit flows from the center to the middle part of the city, adjacent territories will become more accessible, passenger traffic in the metro will decrease and roads will be partially cleared.
The load on the main metro lines, primarily the Circle Line and central interchange stations, will be reduced by more than 15%.

"Without the sound of wheels"

Fast “Swallows” reach speeds of up to 160 km/h, but at the same time do not cause “noisy inconvenience” to citizens.

All electrified rolling stock is noticeably quieter than diesel locomotives and meets modern environmental requirements.

Protective screens will protect citizens from unnecessary noise
and the creation of the so-called “velvet road” - without the sound of wheels.

This technology involves laying railway tracks using special technology in separate 800-meter sections.

Why will the city train become a popular mode of transport among Muscovites?

A trip along the MCC will be many times more comfortable than in the metro. 110 “swallows” ply along the railway ring, each designed for 1,200 people.

New generation city electric trains are equipped with

Security on the MCC

Rail transport traditionally remains one of the most dangerous in the world. However, emergency situations do not occur with trains, but with inattentive passengers who step onto the rails in prohibited places.
A fence has been installed along the entire perimeter of the MCC, which will prevent unauthorized access to the railway tracks.

The total length of the fence was 108 km

Part of the fence (16 km) are noise barriers that were installed within the boundaries of residential buildings.

Free pass
– does NOT mean uncontrolled

On the Moscow Central Circle, all transport security measures applied in the metro and railway are implemented. For example, profiling will also be carried out here.

Profiling

This method evaluates and predicts human behavior based on the analysis of characteristics of appearance, non-verbal and verbal behavior.
There will also be a traditional search like in the subway. Increased protection for passengers will be provided through a modern turnstile system, detector frames and CCTV, as well as the creation of a separate police unit.

Transport hubs

It will be possible to change from one type of transport to another in a matter of minutes using transport interchange hubs (TPU). They consist of terminals with ticket offices and turnstiles, as well as a system of covered pedestrian galleries - overhead and underground passages that protect passengers from bad weather.

All stations provide a transfer to city public transport

buses, trams, trolleybuses and autolines

Passengers don’t even have to go outside, which is why this type of transfer is called the “principle” dry feet».

Now ground urban transport brings citizens directly to the ring stations

In the future, transport hubs will become multifunctional: they will include offices, shopping malls, shops and cafes. Investors will invest money in the construction of the commercial part; the city, using funds from the Moscow budget, is building only the technological part of the hub, which performs a transport function. This concept meets the interests of investors, for whom it is important to recoup their investments in construction, and the needs of citizens, who will be able to find work or receive necessary services close to home.

In the future, some long-distance trains will be able to disembark passengers before reaching the station. By using the MCC, people will be able to save their time, and train stations in the center of Moscow will become freer.

Parking and rides

There will also be an increase in passengers on the MCC due to some motorists who will choose “traffic-free” movement around the city on rail transport. This will relieve some of the load from overcrowded city highways.

You will be able to park your car in park-and-ride parking lots near 17 stations Moscow Central Circle. They are ready to accept 2 thousand cars.

These parking lots will operate in the same mode as intercept parking lots at metro stations, of which there are 31 (capacity - 6.6 thousand cars). The largest of them, for 1.48 thousand cars, is located at the Annino metro station.

The Moscow Central Circle will breathe life into abandoned areas around

For 90 years, the district railway was used for the delivery of goods.

During the USSR, the necessary load was provided to it by municipal and industrial enterprises located around. But gradually production fell into decline, and these days these sites are, at best, used for warehouses, and more often they are simply idle.

The MCC is a unique project not only from the point of view of developing transport infrastructure, but also from the point of view of creating new jobs.

After the introduction of new real estate in the area of ​​the MCC stations, about 40 thousand jobs will be created.

Investors have already expressed their readiness to invest in the development of areas around 11 MCC stations. Among them:

"Botanical Garden"

"Vladykino"

"Yaroslavskaya"

"Open Highway"

"Novokhokhlovskaya"

"ZIL"

"Warsaw highway"

"Business center"

"Shelepikha"

"Novopeschanaya"

"Nikolaevskaya"

Attracting private investment will allow Moscow to save budget money and direct it to the development of social and transport infrastructure in other areas of the city.

Former industrial zones will turn into new urban areas

Around the ring, according to calculations by the General Plan Institute, the following can be built:

750 thousand sq. m of commercial real estate.
Of them 300 thousand “squares”- hotels,
250 thousand - trading platforms,
200 thousand - new offices and technology parks.

Moscow has the right to expect that developers will be interested in investing in real estate construction, because after the launch of the MCC, the cost of land around it will increase significantly. The former industrial zones around the MCC fell into disrepair: these territories required an integrated approach. And putting the lands around the railway ring in order became the largest urban improvement project in 2016. Every day, 25.9 thousand people were involved in the improvement of the MCC in the summer of 2016. At the same time, the work was not aimed only at improving the appearance of the stations; the task was also to create convenient pedestrian connections between the MCC and ground urban transport stops.

  • 2,800 trees were planted on the MCC.
  • Renovated facades 111 56 historical buildings. Near 11 stations view zones are created.

    The historical Kanatchikovo station on the MCC will not open to passengers, but will become an interesting excursion site.

    Two residential buildings, a gatehouse, a centralization booth and a warehouse have also been preserved. The Kanatchikovo station has adorned the Moscow Central Circle, being of value to anyone interested in the history of Moscow railways and urban architecture.

    This decision is due to the low passenger traffic in this area. "Kanatchikovo" is located between the stops "Krymskaya" and "Ploshchad Gagarina" parallel to Kanatchikovsky Proezd. The two-story station building from the early 20th century is a cultural heritage site.

    History of the creation of the MCC

    In 2018, the Moscow Central Circle will celebrate a unique anniversary: ​​Emperor Nicholas II made the decision to build the Circular Railway in Moscow in the fall of 1897.

    The initiator of the project was a great enthusiast of railway transport, Minister of Finance of the Russian Empire Sergei Witte. The circular railway was of great national importance, so the best Russian engineers and architects were involved in the project.

    For 110 years, the MCC’s mission has not changed: saving passengers’ time.

On 50 versts (54 km) was built
14 stations

2
stopping points

30
overpasses

72 bridges
(of which 4 are through
Moscow River)

35 pairs of trains ran along the district per day. Passenger transportation on the MCC did not last long; they were stopped due to unprofitability. For more than a century, the railway ring was used only for the transport of goods and served the industrial areas around it.

The idea of ​​restoring passenger traffic never left Moscow city planners, but work began only in 2012.
It was necessary to completely update the infrastructure: electrify the road, reposition the rails and, most importantly, reconstruct eight overpasses at the intersection with highways in order to raise them to a height that would allow new trains to pass through.

The first passengers traveled along the district on September 10, 2016. On the eve of this event, the road was given a new name - the Moscow Central Circle (MCC).

The first stage of the Moscow Central Circle will take place on September 10. The online publication site answered the most important questions about the new type of urban transport.

What it is?

The Moscow Central Circle is a network that connects the metro and radial lines of suburban railways. It used to be called the Moscow Ring Railway. The MCC runs near the Third Ring Road in the southeast and west of the city and in the middle between the Third Transport Ring and the Moscow Ring Road in the north of the capital.

The main task of the road is to shorten the path from one point remote from the city center to another. According to experts, the launch of the railway should reduce travel time by an average of 20 minutes, relieve congestion on the Circle Subway Line by 15 percent, and the city’s central stations by 20 percent.

How many stations will open on the MCC?

The ring includes 31 stations, each of which provides transfers to other types of public transport. 17 stations will be connected to 11 metro lines, 10 to radial railway lines.

At the first stage, 26 stations will be available to passengers, reports the press service of the Moscow Construction Complex, citing Deputy Mayor for Urban Development Policy Marat Khusnullin. The rest will begin work before the end of the year.

Until 2018, the connection between MCC stations and metro stations, radial railway lines and surface urban transport will gradually improve.

Where can I transfer from the MCC?

In total, with the launch of the MCC, Muscovites and guests of the capital can make more than 350 transfers, and travel time when moving around the capital will be reduced by three times.

Passengers will be able to freely change trains when traveling on the following routes: Metro – MCC – Metro; Metro – MCC; MCC – Metro – Monorail; Monorail – Metro – MCC – Metro.

There are also transfers from trains to buses, trolleybuses and trams. The surface transport schedule will be adjusted to the MCC schedule.

The intervals of ground transport routes serving the ring have been approximately 10 minutes since September 8. In the future, they are planned to be reduced to 6–8 minutes, so that passengers can almost immediately transfer from the MCC to ground transport.

Territory maps have been updated for more than four thousand ground transport stops, and 15 stops now have stations on the new ring.

It will also be possible to get to the new railway line by personal transport: special parking lots will be installed at 13 stops.

How to navigate the MCC?

In total, several versions of the MCC scheme have been prepared. On one of them, it is plotted on a map of the city with the designation of suburban railway lines, as well as metro lines, including the Third Interchange Circuit under construction.

In the second, the MCC map is included in the currently used metro map and is indicated there as the 14th metro line. In total, 50 thousand new schemes will be posted in the subway. The updated maps will also contain information about how long it will take to transfer from the metro station to the MCC station.

The ring stations themselves are equipped with navigation panels in Russian and English. Braille will be installed for visually impaired passengers. Also at each station there will be boards with train arrival times. Several of them will have “Live Communication” counters.

Where can I find detailed information about the MCC?

A section dedicated to the Moscow Central Circle has appeared on the official website of the capital's metro.

The new page contains information about the history of the creation of the MCC and the modern Lastochka trains running around the ring. Also, site visitors can familiarize themselves with the map of transfers from the metro to the MCC and select convenient routes.

In addition, a page for the central ring was opened on the Unified Transport Portal. Here you can also get detailed information about the routes taken and the time spent on the road.

What tickets will be valid on the MCC?

The tickets for the MCC are the same as for the metro. In the first month after opening, travel will be free.

Passengers using a Unified or Troika card purchased before September 1 need to renew their travel cards. Single can be renewed at the metro ticket office, Troika can be renewed through a machine by topping up the card with any amount.

Social cards do not require updating. The same applies to passes purchased in September.

It will be possible to buy tickets at the ring stations both in cash and by cards. They also plan to introduce a contactless fare payment system, which will allow you to pay for travel using a mobile phone, as well as the PayPass/PayWave system - money will be debited automatically if you attach a bank card to the validator.

The same tariffs will apply on the MCC as in the metro.

  • one trip – 50 rubles;
  • one train with a Troika card – 32 rubles;
  • 90 minutes – 60 rubles.
Within 90 minutes, passengers will be able to transfer from the ring to the subway and back for free.

Will there be any benefits at the MCC?

All benefits valid in the metro will remain. More than three million capital beneficiaries will receive the right to free travel along the second ring, including:

  • pensioners;
  • disabled people and participants of the Great Patriotic War;
  • participants in the defense of Moscow;
  • home front workers;
  • residents of besieged Leningrad;
  • former prisoners of Nazi camps, prisons and ghettos;
  • Heroes of the Soviet Union;
  • Heroes of the Russian Federation;
  • Heroes of Socialist Labor and full holders of the Orders of Glory and Labor Glory of three degrees;
  • labor veterans;
  • honorary donors (USSR, Russia or Moscow);
  • one of the parents and children from large families;
  • orphans and children left without parental care, and their guardians (trustees);
  • schoolchildren and students.
Also on the Moscow Central Circle there will be a social card for Muscovites and social cards for students and schoolchildren.

What schedule will the MCC operate on?

The MCC will operate according to the same schedule as the metro – from 5:30 to 01:00.

During peak hours, trains will run at intervals of six minutes; at normal times, trains will have to wait 15 minutes.

How long will it take to travel along the MCC?

Time in which you can travel the entire ring: 84 minutes, including stops. Passengers will not have to go to the Circle Line of the metro to get, say, from Mezhdunarodnaya to Leninsky Prospekt or from Vladykino to Rokossovsky Boulevard. With the opening of the road, covering these sections will take 10-12 minutes instead of 28-39, respectively.

What trains will travel on the MCC?

They will carry passengers. It is planned to equip all rolling stock with energy-saving electrical equipment, video cameras, air conditioning, phone chargers and free Wi-Fi.

Each "Swallow" will have five carriages. The two head cars will have two toilets, which are adapted for people with limited mobility, and there will be bins at the exits of the train.

In the first months, passengers will open the doors of Lastochkas on the MCC on their own. For this purpose, special buttons will be installed on the door leaves outside and inside the car. They will only be active when the train is completely stopped. A nearby green indicator will indicate that the button is working.

Will trains indicate the travel time to the next station?

All MCC trains will have video screens on which they will broadcast a display counting down the travel time to the next station. Passengers will be able to see how many minutes are left before arriving at the platform. The monitors will also show the speed of the train and changes in the metro schedule.

The first two trains with video information will be launched immediately in September, all trains will be equipped with screens by next fall. It is planned to install four screens in each carriage.

Is the MCC adapted for people with limited mobility?

Yes. All platforms are equipped with tactile tiles for ease of movement for visually impaired passengers. Elevators and escalators are installed at 26 transport hubs, and special lifts are installed at 5 transport hubs.

Will it be possible to travel with a bicycle or a stroller?

Yes. You can carry it on MCC trains; there are fasteners in the second and fourth cars. The first carriage of the trains will have seats for people with limited mobility. There is floor navigation inside the trains, it will tell you where to go for cyclists and where for people with mobility restrictions.

This information is also indicated on the outside of the trains. And next to each MCC transport hub, bicycle parking and bike sharing stations will be installed.

Are the MCC and the Third Interchange Circuit the same thing?

No. Many people confuse the Moscow Central Circle with, but they are not the same thing. The main difference is that the MCC is a railway connection, and the TPK is a subway ring.

TPK will become a new large ring of the Moscow metro. Its total length will be 59.5 kilometers with 28 stations. The first section of the circuit will be opened this year, and the entire line is planned to be launched within the next four years.

When did the idea of ​​creating the MCC appear?

Construction of the road in 1903 under the personal supervision of the Moscow Governor-General, Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich.

Five years later, the first train was launched on the new railway; in just one day, four trains passed along the line. And while freight transportation has fully justified itself, passenger transportation has not.

At first, Muscovites were embarrassed by the high price of tickets, and in the late 20s - early 30s, bus and tram services were improved in the areas where the ring road ran, the popularity of trains fell, and in 1934 passenger service had to be closed.

They wanted to renew them in the 60s, but the proposal was never implemented, and in the late 80s the railway decided to restore the historical buildings and run passenger trains.

The modern idea of ​​turning the road into a highway with metro connections appeared in 2001. And reconstruction began under Sergei Sobyanin in 2012.

Reconstruction of the Moscow Central Circle (MCC)- a unique project not only for Moscow, but also for Russia as a whole. The MCC has become a full-fledged light metro, integrated into the metro system.

The MCC map is included in the capital's metro map. It shows the approximate time of ground transfers from the MCC.

In addition, the diagram indicates possible transfers from the MCC to ground urban transport, traffic intervals, etc.

Traffic around the ring was launched on September 10, 2016. This gave a new impetus to the development of abandoned industrial areas of the capital, and also made it possible to cut the Gordian knot of transport problems hanging over the capital.

The Moscow Central Circle is the road to the future. Thanks to the ring, trips around the capital take an average of 20 minutes. Another unique feature of the MCC was that it connected the capital’s garden and park ensembles: the Mikhalkovo estate, the Botanical Garden, the territories of VDNKh and the Elk Island National Park, the Vorobyovy Gory nature reserve and others.

MCC is a new life for industrial zones of Moscow

Since 1908, the Moscow Central Circle served industrial zones and mainly performed the function of transporting goods. However, over time, many industrial areas around this ring fell into disrepair, and some industries closed. A number of industrial zones were, at best, used for warehouses. Now these territories are being actively reorganized, housing with social facilities, sports complexes, etc. are being built here. And developing territories require convenient transport connections.

The launch of passenger traffic along the MCC resolves the issue of transport support for industrial zones. In addition, the ring connected suburban trains and electric trains that go to the city center with MCC stations. Passengers can, before reaching the city center, transfer to MCC trains and move further throughout almost the entire territory of Moscow.

All MCC stations were built as transport hubs (TPU). They will include offices, shopping malls, shops and cafes. This concept meets both the interests of investors, for whom it is important to recoup investments in construction, and the needs of citizens.

The opening of the Moscow Central Circle (MCC) took place on September 10, 2016. 31 stations are available for passengers. A RIAMO correspondent learned how to use a new type of urban transport.

On the launch day, 26 stations were put into operation: Okruzhnaya, Likhobory, Baltiyskaya, Streshnevo, Shelepikha, Khoroshevo, Delovoy Tsentr, Kutuzovskaya, Luzhniki, Gagarin Square ", "Crimean", "Upper Boilers", "Vladykino", "Botanical Garden", "Rostokino", "Belokamennaya", "Rokossovsky Boulevard", "Lokomotiv", "Entuziastov Highway", "Nizhegorodskaya", "Novokhokhlovskaya", “Ugreshskaya”, “Avtozavodskaya”, “ZIL”, as well as “Izmailovo” and “Andronovka”.

In 2018, the construction of warm crossings will be completed: it will be possible to make transfers without going outside. A total of 350 transfers will be available for passengers, so travel time should be reduced by 3 times.

Fare

To access the MCC station, you can use any Moscow metro pass (Troika, Ediny, 90 Minutes), as well as social cards. Within 90 minutes from the moment the ticket is validated, transition from the metro to the MCC and back is free. Payment for travel by bank cards is also provided.

MCC schemes

Three variants of MCC schemes have been developed for passengers. The first, in addition to the metro lines and MCC stations, indicates the stages of opening stations and transitions, the distance between transfer stations and the time it will take to transfer.

The second version of the diagram will help commuters find their way: the map shows railway stations, existing metro lines, as well as MCC stations and “warm” metro transfers.

The third diagram shows the stops of ground urban transport near the MCC stations, as well as the interval of its movement during rush hour. For example, from the Luzhniki platform of the MCC you can go to the Sportivnaya metro station in 2 minutes. Buses number 806, 64, 132 and 255 regularly run there, so getting to the right place will not be difficult.

In addition, the map shows all the main attractions of the city, forest parks and nature reserves. Many of them are within walking distance from the MCC, for example, Losiny Ostrov Park and the Vorobyovy Gory Nature Reserve.

Transplants

The MCC is integrated into the Moscow public transport system with the possibility of transfer to the metro, Moscow Railway trains and ground public transport.

From September 10, you can transfer from the MCC to the metro at 11 stations (“Business Center”, “Kutuzovskaya”, “Luzhniki”, “Lokomotiv”, “Gagarin Square”, “Vladykino”, “Botanical Garden”, “Rokossovsky Boulevard”, “ Voikovskaya”, “Shosse Entuziastov”, “Avtozavodskaya”), by train - on five (“Rostokino”, “Andronovka”, “Okruzhnaya”, “Business Center”, “Likhobory”).

By the end of 2016, the number of transfer hubs will increase to 14 and 6, respectively, and in 2018 there will be 17 transfers from the MCC to the metro and 10 to the train.

To make a free metro-MCC-metro transfer (within an interval of 90 minutes), you need to attach your metro travel document to the turnstile with a special yellow sticker at the entrance to the MCC station.

Passengers who are planning a trip only on the MCC or intend to make one metro transfer - MCC or vice versa, can apply their tickets to any turnstiles, including those without yellow stickers.

If you do not meet the 1.5 hour time limit, you will need to pay for the fare again when making a transfer.

Trains and intervals

New luxury trains “Lastochka”, with a capacity of 1200 people, run on the MCC. Their maximum speed is 160 kilometers per hour; they travel along the MCC at an average speed of 50 kilometers per hour.

The trains are equipped with air conditioning, dry closets, information panels, free Wi-Fi, sockets and bicycle racks.

The carriages open manually: to enter or exit, you need to press a special button installed on the doors. The buttons are active (green backlight) only after the train has stopped on the platform; at other times, for safety reasons, the doors are locked.

During morning and evening rush hours, the traffic interval is only 6 minutes. The rest of the time you need to wait for “Swallow” from 10 to 15 minutes.

Updating (activating) travel cards

In order to access the MCC using “90 minutes”, “United” for 20, 40 and 60 trips, “Troika” tickets purchased or topped up before September 1, 2016, you need to renew them. To do this, you can contact the metro or monorail ticket office, as well as the metro passenger agency (Boyarsky Lane, 6) or the Moscow Transport service center (Staraya Basmannaya St., 20, building 1).

Holders of a Strelka card to travel by train must exchange it at the metro ticket office for a card with the Troika application.

Activation is carried out without changing the balance of trips and the validity period of the ticket, while the new reprogrammed travel documents will allow free transfers from the metro to the MCC and back.

You can also update your Troika electronic card yourself by topping up your balance at ticket machines at stations, on the website troika.mos.ru, via SMS or at payment terminals. As for social cards, their activation is not required.

Help and navigation

You can find out detailed information about updating tickets, transfer hubs and navigation on the MCC from consultants at the entrance to the ring metro stations or at metro stations adjacent to the MCC. Volunteers will also help passengers navigate the new transport. A special mobile application is also being developed, with which you can choose the optimal route.

Here you can see new convenient routes through the MCC.

The Moscow Central Circle (MCC) will open to passengers in early September. Approximately September 10th. This was stated by the head of the Moscow Metro, Dmitry Pegov.

The MCC line received number 14 in the Moscow Metro. The ring consists of 31 stations, 17 of them are connected to the metro, 10 to radial railway lines. Transfers between metro stations and the MCC will take no more than 10-12 minutes. The shortest and most comfortable transfers will be in “warm” (not requiring going outside) crossings from the stations: Mezhdunarodnaya, Leninsky Prospekt, Cherkizovskaya, Vladykino, Kutuzovskaya.

The main advantage of the Moscow Central Circle is that it should relieve the “Koltsevaya” line by 15%, the “Sokolnicheskaya” line by 20%, and all stations.

ABOUT OPERATING MODE

Since the Moscow Central Circle is metro line 14, the operating hours will be identical - daily from 5.30 to 1.00.

ABOUT THE COST OF TRAVEL

A single ticket for 20 trips will cost 650 rubles, for 40 trips - 1,300 rubles, 60 trips - 1,570 rubles. At the same time, travel for Troika card users on the MCC will cost the same as on the metro - 32 rubles. It is worth emphasizing that the possibility of transferring from the metro to the MCC and back will be free of charge.

Transfers within 90 minutes from the moment you first enter the station are free. Reprogramming of turnstiles, cash registers, and ticket vending machines has now begun,” said Dmitry Pegov.

You can use the second free metro transfer from MCC platforms only with tickets purchased after September 1. Passengers who purchased tickets before this date will be able to exchange them for new ones, with the benefit of a free transfer. Otherwise, the additional trip will be charged. And the first 30,000 people who exchange tickets purchased before September 1 will receive gifts from the metro. There will be no need to exchange social cards.

ABOUT PAYMENT METHODS

Tickets can be purchased in the same way as for trips on the metro: at ticket offices, vending machines, or top up your Troika card via the Internet. It will also be possible to pay for travel by credit card. For this purpose, all stations are now equipped with machines for reading bank cards.

ABOUT PASSENGER SERVICES

The stations will introduce similar services that exist in the metro. Passengers with limited mobility will be able to benefit from free mobility assistance. The stations will have chargers for gadgets, trees, and benches. And also trash cans, which are not in the Moscow metro itself. “Live Communication” counters will appear at five stations, where tourists will also be able to obtain information in English. In particular, it is already being installed at the Luzhniki station.

ABOUT COMPOSITIONS

33 trains will be launched on the ring, which will have handrails for standing passengers. And just like on regular trains, there will be toilets. The interval between trains will be only 6 minutes.

THE YANDEX METRO APPLICATION WILL BE UPDATED

By the time the Moscow Central Circle launches, the map will be updated in the Yandex Metro application, which is used by many Muscovites.

We have already taken measurements so that people can plan their time on the trip. People will also be informed about temporary closures of stations, said Alexander Shulgin, CEO of Yandex in Russia.

WHAT ARE THEY DOING NOW?

Navigation is hosted;

The trains practice movement intervals;

Information boards are installed on the platforms;

They are creating comfortable ground transport routes connecting with stations of the new subway line.

INTERESTING TO KNOW

75 million passengers will be able to use the transportation in the first year, and by 2025 the number will increase to 350 million passengers annually;

The metro staff will increase by 800 people.

Online workload application

To implement this project, it is necessary to prepare the infrastructure to show this. But we have this in our plans. This will be a similar project to Yandex.Traffic. The Moscow Metro is working on the issue of providing Yandex with data on congestion. As soon as we are able to receive them, we will send them to Yandex, and they will be displayed in the application online,” said Dmitry Pegov, head of the metro.
