Metro in Zheleznodorozhny: exact terms of putting into operation

Moscow is a huge metropolis, systematically developing and expanding. Together with the capital, the neighborhood also grows. As a consequence, the load on transport increases many times. Residents of the Moscow region have to spend a lot of time to get to the white-stone. To solve the problem, Moscow's management plans to build a ground metro in Zheleznodorozhny, Nakhabino, Kryukovo, Odintsovo, Domodedovo, Podolsk, Lyubertsy and Pushkino.

A bit of history

The railway became a city of regional subordination in 1960. It was founded in the 19th century after the opening of the Moscow-Nizhny Novgorod railway. Already then in Kuchino (now a microdistrict of the city) a brick factory and Aerodynamic Institute functioned. A little later, the factory was opened. During the Soviet period the city of Zheleznodorozhny continued to grow. His industry developed at an accelerated pace. So, a research institute, a woodworking combine, an auto repair plant were built. Now the city is rapidly building, infrastructure is developing. The number of residents at the moment reaches over 140 thousand people. In such conditions the metro in Zheleznodorozhny became vital.

Advantages and disadvantages of the underground metro

After considering all possible options, the capital's leadership decided to build a metro in Zheleznodorozhny And other cities of the Moscow region. It will be ground, or, as they say, easy. This type of transport has a number of undeniable advantages, the most important of which is the price. On average, about 80 million dollars are needed for laying 1 km of an underground tunnel. While for 1 km of the underground metro - only 15-20 million. When building a ground metro, it is not necessary to create drainage and ventilation systems, to eliminate quicksand. But for convenience for passengers the ground metro is in no way inferior to the underground one. Unfortunately, the disadvantages of a light subway also exist. In the period of construction it is noise, dirt, deterioration of the capacity of the existing transport. But people are ready to endure all the inconvenience, if only the metro in Zheleznodorozhny appeared. They are not frightened even by changes in the timetable for the movement of electric trains and the increase in congestion on the roads during the construction period.

Is the metro necessary in Zheleznodorozhny?

The center of the city of Zheleznodorozhny is the same name. The station. The distance from it to the Moscow Ring Road is about 10 km. It seems to be close, but motorists suffer. The width of the roadway is 7 meters, the movement is two-way. It is clear that overtaking in such conditions is difficult. On this site, you will not be surprised by traffic jams. There are also accidents and attacks on pedestrians. The situation is further deteriorating in the spring-summer period, when the summer season begins. From the capital to Zheleznodorozhny, several shuttle buses run from the metro stations Shchelkovskaya, Novogireevo, Vykhino and Izmailovsky Park. 36 pairs of electric trains and 14 pairs of high-speed trains run from Kursk railway station. The interval of movement is not more than 20 minutes. With a good deal to the capital, you can "get home" for 25 minutes. During peak hours, this time increases by two or three times. All this to the residents of Zheleznodorozhny creates considerable difficulties.

What has already been done

The powerful have a huge desire to implement the project of the underground metro in the Moscow region, for which it is planned to allocate 236 billion rubles. For this money will be laid 125 km. 50 new stations were built. Passenger traffic to the completion of construction will reach 825 million people.

What will be the Moscow subway

By all standards it will be convenient. Now 211 parking lots are being designed so that passengers can leave their vehicles and change into subway cars. For greater convenience, it is also planned to build 75 interchange nodes, 30 of which will be built next to the railway. 2 stations near the metro station Kotelniki and Chelobitevo, 43 not far from the bus stations. The trains will run at intervals of no more than 4-5 minutes, and so on. Etc. There were no endless traffic jams, 57 overpasses would be constructed. Electric trains are planning to purchase new ones, with heating, and the stations will be equipped with toilets and various automatic machines, for example, coffee vending machines.

Will they succeed or not?

Although construction The metro in Zheleznodorozhny has already been started, many doubt that it will be delivered on time. In Kryukovo, for example, it was planned to open the metro in 2014, but Marat Khusnullin, deputy mayor of the capital for construction, made the assumption that the works can finally be completed only in 2015. Also with the metro line in the Belorussian direction. But do not worry, the subway will still be there. Experts already now predict in Zheleznodorozhny an increase in the pace of housing construction. True, property prices will increase by approximately 20%. But it will be convenient for the townspeople to get to any area of Moscow. It is nice to note that the cost of a ticket in the light subway, according to the statement of Deputy Chairman Ivanov, will not be higher than in the ordinary metro.
