Novosibirsk Metro

Description:

Novosibirsk metro is one of the Russian metro, which is the only one in Siberia and the most remote in the east of the country.

The decision to build the metro was made by the Council of Ministers in 1978. In many ways, the adoption of this decision was facilitated by the chairman of the city executive committee I. Sevastyanov and the chief architect of Novosibirsk L. Mikhalev.

Construction began on May 12, 1979. On January 7, 1986, a solemn rally and the opening of the metro took place. The launched section consisted of five stations along the Lenin line. The second section was opened on December 31, 1987. He solved the main transport problem - he connected the station with the main part of the metro. Until 2000, there was only one shuttle.

Currently, the Novosibirsk metro is the third in the country in terms of passenger traffic. The subway carries about two hundred thousand people per day.
