The Moscow Metro continues its large-scale expansion. Over the past 15 years, more than 260 km of lines, 127 stations, and 14 depots (including the Brateyevo wagon repair plant) have been built or reconstructed in the metro and on the Moscow Central Circle.
In 2024, two new depots—Yuzhnoye and Stolbovo—were put into operation, improving the reliability and quality of rolling stock maintenance.
In September, the first phase of Line 16 was completed. In October, tunneling began for the second phase—a 6-station southern section running along Kaluzhskoye Highway from Kommunarka to Troitsk.
In June, tunneling started for Line 18.
Work continues on extending Line 3 from Schyolkovskaya to Golyanovo, which will become the new terminus.
Construction is also underway for Dostoevskaya station on the Circle Line and Line 17.
Currently, 11 tunnel boring machines are simultaneously operating on Moscow Metro tunnel construction.
“Under the leadership of Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, over the past 15 years, the city’s transport infrastructure has become more comfortable, well-planned, and balanced for all residents. The metro network has grown by almost 1.7 times, with track length increasing from just over 300 km to 560 km. In 2025 alone, 4 new stations and nearly 10 km of track were opened,” explained Maksim Liksutov, the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport.
By the end of 2032, about 83 km of new lines, 34 stations, and three depots are planned for construction in the Moscow Metro.
