Moscow Metro successfully transports passengers for nearly eighty years.His first line was opened back in 1935.The plan to build the subway in Moscow at the time was not worked on such a distant prospect and build gradually as the development of new areas and reconstruction of the historic city.
transport system of the capital
Metropolitan is an essential element of the whole transport infrastructure of Moscow.The value only increases with the development of the metropolis.When congestion of the main land routes at peak times the metro runs without traffic jams and disruptions.For most people it is the only reliable way to get to the desired point of the city without delay.Without working underground life in Moscow will be paralyzed.There is no doubt that the existing scheme of underground should be developed and improved.But it is necessary to draw conclusions from and admitted to the first time miscalculations and mistakes.
main shortcomings of the existing system
Time ruthlessly revealed many imperfections adopted once the concept of underground.The plan to build the subway in Moscow, tied to the Ring line was progressive and relevant to the postwar period.But such a solution was an absolute obstacle to the development in modern conditions.The existing scheme subway often forces passengers to get to the desired station through a change to the Circle Line.But this contradicts elementary principles of logistics.Therefore, a plan to build the subway in Moscow for the near and more distant prospect should be based on principles that can overcome the shortcomings of the system formed.
Future Directions
further plan to build the subway in Moscow implies an integrated approach to overcoming the current problems.Directions for further development will be several.They mean the appearance on the map of new and continuation of the existing lines.Increasingly subway lines will extend beyond the ring road in the direction of the field.The apparent novelty is the plan to build a light-rail.It will take place on the right of way of the existing railway lines and provide a message to the big cities in the Moscow city center.
third interchange circuit
currently defined and taken to the execution of specific tasks for the construction for the period up to 2020.One of the major projects, which includes a plan to build the Moscow metro is the creation of a third interchange circuit.This project involves the construction of four chordate line passing through the peripheral areas of the capital.Driving traffic to these lines will have a trip principle.Once the circuit is closed, one of the routes is expected to make a ring.Thus, in the Moscow metro may receive a second ring line.But it is in the distant future.Currently under construction the first chord section.Opening his pre-planned in the fourth quarter of 2015.Starting station will be held between the stations "Business Center" and "Bottom Maslivka."It will include six new stations.
Easy metro
in the Moscow suburbs are a number of fairly large cities.Above all, this Khimki Podolsk, Dolgoprudny, Mytishchi and Reutov.They live a lot of people who work in the capital.They are forced every day to overcome the distance to your workplace and back again.Construction of subway lines in the city would require a very large investment funds, if you build the subway in the usual format.Therefore, to provide transport links to those cities, it was adopted version of the so-called "light metro".In fact, it's closer to all the usual train.But its cars converted by the standards of the underground and the departure interval is significantly reduced.Trains Skytrain move along the existing railway lines, or, if not possible, on laid parallel to them.So, for example, the train will arrive from Khimki to the Leningrad railway station.Easy subway allows for sufficiently modest investments to ensure the suburbs transport communications.The disadvantages of this project should include the fact that his line will be integrated into the existing scheme of the Moscow subway.On the Leningrad station passengers will have to change to "Komsomolskaya" - ring or radial.And it will have to pass a second time through the turnstile.
development of the existing network
addition of new approaches, plan to build a subway to 2020 involves the further development and improvement of the already established scheme of Moscow Metro.Do not forget about the expansion of the boundaries of Moscow in a southwesterly direction.In the former territory of the region, which in July 2012 became part of the city of Moscow, will be built three underground lines.This, above all, talking about the continuation of Sokolniki and Kalinin-Solntsevo lines.The new line will be held parallel to the Skytrain Kaluga highway in the direction of KOMMUNARKA.In addition, the new metro stations will appear on many other existing directions.According to the approved plan, to 2020 in the Moscow metro will 160 kilometers of new lines and 79 stations.By the end of 2014 year to be commissioned in the starting area on the Lublin-Dmitrov line of "Marina Grove" to "Seliger".The oldest Sokolnicheskaya line will be continued from the "Southwest" to "Salaryevo."Violet Metro Line to reach the station "Kotelniki".In addition, it will reopen in the old days, the unfinished station "Spartacus."For 2017 it is planned commissioning of the plot Solntsevo line "Victory Park" to "Ramenky."And in 2019 it will be possible to pass on the Kalinin line from the station "Tretyakov" station "Business Center".The two currently existing lines are connected to one Kalinin-Solntsevskaya.
