The company managing the Bucharest subway network, Metrorex, has plans for the extension of the underground connections, with 8 new stations and 19 km of new subway line. Director general Mariana Micl\u0103u\u0219 spoke to Arena Construc\u021biilor<\/a> about the extension, noting that the documentation under preparation concerns the Preciziei \u2013 Chiajna segment (3.3 km, two stations), the Preciziei \u2013 Cartierul Latin\/Bragadiru area (4.36 km, two stations), and the P\u0103cii \u2013 West Ring Road Line (3.7 km, four stations).<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s Investment Program for the development of transport infrastructure for 2021\u20132030 provides for the above-ground extension of two new branches, in the shape of the letter Y, which will depart from Preciziei station. Micl\u0103u\u0219 mentioned that steps are currently being taken to identify the source of funding for the investment.<\/p>\n

If implemented, the new lines will connect two important residential areas (the Militari residential area and the Prelungirea Ghencea area, respectively) to the M3 line.<\/p>\n

One branch will be built parallel to the railway line that leaves the ring road towards the Militari depot. It will have a common station with the railway ring\/metropolitan train in the Bucharest West area, then it will branch off eastwards towards the Militari Residence neighborhood. The estimated length is 3.3 km and a number of two above-ground stations (Autostrada A1 Station, Strada Osiei Station).<\/p>\n

The Militari \u2013 Cartierul Latin (Bragadiru) branch will connect the current line with another densely populated area, the Cartierul Latin area south of the current line. The branch will be built parallel to the railway line that leaves the Militari depot towards the southern branch of the railway ring road, and will run parallel to the railway ring towards Domne\u0219ti, where it will have a common station with the railway ring\/metropolitan train.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From here, the line will then branch eastwards towards Cartierul Latin (Bragadiru) along the northern alignment of Prelungirea Ghencea Street, an alignment that has a reduced number of buildings up to the terminus station. The estimated length is 4.36 km and a number of two above-ground stations (Domne\u0219ti and Cartierul Latin).<\/p>\n

At the moment, Bucharest authorities are extending two subway lines simultaneously<\/a>, namely the M4 line between Eroii Revolu\u0163iei and Gara Progresul, and the M6 line to Henri Coand\u0103 Airport.<\/p>\n
