The Moscow authorities once again postponed the opening of the first section of the TPK metro. The construction of two metro stations is nearing completion - Petrovsky Park and CSKA

Those who follow the development of the Moscow Metro know that a second circle line is currently under construction, which will be called the Third Interchange Circuit. Completely erect a branch, they promise by 2018. Of course, stations are opening gradually, starting in 2015. At the moment, we are interested in Petrovsky Park, and we will analyze in more detail all its nuances related to construction and opening. The name does not contain any secrets and is given by the nearest park area.

Where is the new metro station Petrovsky Park

Many are wondering where the new station is located. As previously mentioned, it will be part of the third interchange circuit, and is located in the interval "CSKA" - "". The exits will be conveniently located for passengers - they are located on both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt. - one will lead to the stadium, the other to the park area. By the way, at the moment, Dynamo is closed for reconstruction, and in the past it was considered the largest metropolitan stadium.

Metro "Petrovsky Park" is very beneficial for both residents of the capital and surrounding areas. A large number of residents of the Moscow region will use this station when traveling to work. In general, according to preliminary calculations, Petrovsky Park will make life easier for 100,000 citizens. By the way, the approximate planned passenger flow is approximately 250 thousand passengers / day, and during the busiest hours - 25 thousand people / hour.

The station will have an underpass and a transfer to the Dynamo station, equipped with an escalator. But the hydrogeological situation is forcing the opening of the metro, and in particular the transition, to be postponed until the end of 2018.

In terms of the architectural solution, Petrovsky Park will be typical, the difference lies in the color schemes. The green color scheme will coincide with the Zamoskvoretskaya line. The platforms will be decorated with black and gray granite, and the track walls will be finished with white marble. Green marble was chosen for the main columns. In view of the nearest location of the Petrovsky Palace, its images will fit into the design. Stained glass windows will complement the pleasant atmosphere of the lobbies and escalators.

When will the Petrovsky Park metro station open in Moscow - latest news

If you are wondering when the Petrovsky Park metro station will open, we offer you a short chronology. Full-fledged construction began in the fall of 2014, when a tunnel-boring complex was installed - its “duties” include the creation of a distillation tunnel to Nizhnyaya Maslovka. Its length is approximately 2 km. In the winter of the following year, the right distillation tunnel was passed, which goes from CSKA. By January 2016, all the main works were completed, and the builders began to equip the junction with Dynamo.

In the autumn of the same year, they began to finish the columns - by that time the construction of the track walls had been completed. In September 2017, the first train run-in was carried out between Delovoy Tsentr and Petrovsky Park. Due to difficulties during the construction of the Petrovsky Park station in Moscow, the latest news says that the opening of the metro is planned for the end of 2017 - the beginning of 2018. Residents of the capital and surrounding areas are looking forward to this event, because. they will be able to come to and from work an hour and a half faster than before.

There is less and less time left before the launch of a new branch - the first stage of the TPK, (a new metro ring) from the Petrovsky Park station to the Business Center. Five new stations and 10 km of tunnels are being prepared to receive the first passengers. However, the exact opening date has not yet been announced, but judging by the readiness to wait, there is not much left to wait.

1. Let's start with Petrovsky Park. With the completion of the construction of this station, Theater Alley, which was previously occupied by the construction site, will be completely opened for traffic. Somewhat strange kerning in writing.

2. Cash hall and turnstiles. The black room is an area for additional screening of passengers.

3. The station will have two underground vestibules with exits to both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt, to Petrovsky Park and the Dynamo Stadium.

4. It is expected that the passenger traffic will exceed 245 thousand people per day, in the morning and evening peak hours it will be 24.5 thousand people per hour.

6. Let's go down to the platform.

7. Next to the station is the Petrovsky Travel Palace of the 18th century, so the architects decided to include it in the design.

8. This is how the platform looked in April of this year.

11. White-green scale was used in the decoration. The floor is tiled with gray and black granite slabs, the track walls - with white marble.

15. The construction of the second stage of the TPK from Petrovsky Park to Nizhnyaya Maslovka, 1.9 km long, is planned to be completed in 2018. In the meantime, Petrovsky Park will be the final one, so we are moving towards the CSKA station, which is located on the territory of Khodynskoye Pole on the site of the former Frunze Central Airfield. One of the exits from the station will lead to the Megasport Sports Palace, one of the largest sports facilities in Moscow. The new station will help spectators to easily get to the sports complex, and will also provide residents of nearby houses around Khodynskoye Pole with an accessible metro.

Soon life on Khodynka will become much more pleasant. Instead of the usual construction, a metro station and a chic park will appear.

16. The main difference between "CSKA" and all the stations of the Moscow subway is the tricky escalator descent to the platform. Imagine that you are on the 4th floor of a mall and you need to go outside. To do this, you need to ride three times on the escalator, moving from one to another.

17. Despite the relatively large laying depth (28 meters), structurally, "CSKA" is a shallow station. I don’t understand what exactly caused such an architectural solution with escalators.

20. According to the new fire safety requirements, all TPK stations are equipped with a smoke exhaust system, which is a special column at both ends of the platform.

21. At the end of the platform, 4 sensors are installed that send a certain signal, which is reflected from the mirror and returned to the camera. Thus, the transparency of the optical medium is determined, based on this information, the system concludes that there is no smoke.

22. The design of the station contains references to the Central Army Sports Club, after which it is named. The main colors at the station are red and blue. On the platform there are bronze sculptures of a skier, a basketball player, a hockey player and a football player.

23. Decorative images dedicated to various sports are applied to the ceiling.

27. We are moving towards Khoroshevskaya. It is planned that the Khoroshevskaya - CSKA - Petrovsky Park section will significantly relieve ground transport traffic between the Zamoskvoretskaya and Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya lines.

28. On the way, we met sad TV people: “Turn around, there is no picture at the station. Start-up and adjustment works are underway, the lighting on the platform has been turned off. Pitch darkness". But I don’t have a video, but only a photo, and besides, there are special flashlights!

30. The station will have two underground vestibules and a transition to Polezhaevskaya. The eastern vestibule will be decorated with compositions in the spirit of the works of Kazimir Malevich and his followers, the western one - in the constructivist style.

31. Shooting without light is a long process, and lunch is on schedule, so we move on. Driving towards "Shelepikha".

32. Shelepikha is located along the MCC line and has two underground vestibules with exits to Shmitovsky proezd and Shelepikhinskoye highway.

34. On the basis of the station, a transport interchange hub will be organized, thanks to which it will be possible to transfer to the MCC station of the same name without going outside, as well as transfer to buses.

35. The dominant colors in the decoration of the station are white, yellow and black.

36. The projects of all stations of the new line are very similar to each other, and differ mainly only due to the color design and finishing materials.

42. And a small excursion to the premises that are hidden from the eyes of the passenger. The traction step-down substation (TPP) is used to convert alternating current into direct current with a voltage of 825 V to the contact rail necessary for the movement of electric trains (traction, blue cabinets) ...

43. ... and to lower the voltage (hence the name traction-step-down) of alternating current to 380, 220 and 127 V, necessary for various station services (escalators, station lighting, ventilation, pumps, and so on). These are white cabinets.

44. Lungs of a smoker and a healthy person. On one wall of the tunnel there is a "low side" with a voltage of 220 and 127 V, track boxes for service personnel with sockets for all sorts of angle grinders, automatic telemechanics for train traffic, water supply, fiber optics, and a sound warning system. From the "high side", where the contact rail passes, there are cables of a larger diameter. On this side there are also track boxes, but already at 380 V for more serious equipment, which is usually rolled on trolleys - for example, a grinder or a mixer. Permanent and emergency lighting systems run on both sides of the tunnel.

45. This is how it looks in the finished tunnel. From above "under the ceiling" there is a radio communication of the drivers. Bottom tray for collecting water.

46. ​​Pumping station for pumping water into storm sewers. Can easily send "up" a small underground river.

48. This is what a standard travel box looks like. Whose cables? Who is the manufacturer?" - I asked an electrician who was finishing the installation of the next track box. - “Whose, whose? Kazan, of course. There are no others here." (See the report from the production of cables in the suburbs of Kazan:)

49. Megaphone of the sound warning system (not to be confused with a cellular operator).

50. Scheme of the entire TPK, the length of which will be 66 kilometers. With the advent of TPK, some passengers will no longer need to go to the center for a transfer. This will not only reduce travel time, but also free up the congested city center. Today, many passengers have to go to the Circle Line, make two transfers to get to the stations located on the neighboring radial line. The opening of the TPK should solve this problem. For example, the journey from Sokolniki to Elektrozavodskaya will be reduced from 30 minutes to 5.

51. The general contractor for the site is Mosinzhproekt, and almost all construction work was carried out by Ingeocom. Thanks to the guides for the tour!

52. We are waiting for new stations!

Petrovsky Park and CSKA are two launch stations of the Third Interchange Circuit of the Moscow Metro. It is planned that the stations will be opened as part of the Business Center – Petrovsky Park section in 2018.

From the moment of opening, the stations will be part of two routes: the Solntsevskaya line and the Third interchange circuit. Currently, these sections are being actively run-in tracks and finishing vestibules and platforms.

The metro is settling in stations, people are starting to get used to their jobs and will soon be ready to receive passengers.

Metro Petrovsky Park and CSKA when opening: lobbies and escalators are already waiting for Muscovites

The decision to give the station the name Petrovsky Park was made by Decree of the Government of Moscow No. 564-PP dated June 24, 2008. The station is named after the nearby Petrovsky Park.

In August 2015, the new opening date was 2017, in November 2015 - again 2016, but later the deadline was again shifted to spring, then to summer, and then to the end of 2017. September 8, 2017. The first train ran the tracks in the section between Delovoy Tsentr and Petrovsky Park stations.

The platform of the station is finished with gray and black granite, the track walls - with white marble, the columns - with green marble. The design of the station includes images of the Petrovsky Travel Palace, located nearby.

Vestibules and escalators are decorated with illuminated stained-glass windows. Metro station Petrovsky Park of the Third interchange circuit is located between the stations CSKA and Nizhnyaya Maslovka. The exits will lead to both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt, to the Dynamo Stadium and Petrovsky Park. One of the exits to the city from the station will be located near Teatralnaya alley street, building 3, building 1.

Metro Petrovsky Park and CSKA when opening: the operation of the CSKA station will make it possible to speed up travel time

The decision to build the Khodynskoye Pole station was made by Government Decree No. 564-PP dated June 24, 2008.

In February 2015, a proposal was put forward to give the station the name CSKA, after the nearby sports facilities of CSKA. The decision was made on February 12 by the City Interdepartmental Commission for the Name of the Territorial Units of Moscow and sent for consideration to the Moscow government.

In February 2016, fans sent an open letter to Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin asking him to approve the decision to give the station the name CSKA. 8072 people signed the letter. On April 6, 2016, by decree of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, the station was officially named CSKA.

The readiness of the station is 90%. On September 8, 2017, the first train ran the tracks on the section between Delovoy Tsentr and Petrovsky Park stations.

The station was originally planned as a deep station. Later, the designers found new solutions that reduced the cost of construction. As a result, despite the relatively large laying depth (28 meters), structurally the station is a three-span shallow column.

The design of the station contains references to the Central Army Sports Club, after which it is named. The main colors at the station are red and blue.

Decorative images dedicated to various sports are applied to the ceiling. Bronze sculptures of CSKA athletes are placed on the platform.

Thanks to the commissioning of the CSKA station, it is planned to unload the Polezhaevskaya, Sokol and Airport stations.

Metro Petrovsky Park and CSKA when opening: the metro is preparing to receive passengers

In fact, the Metropolitan has reached the finish line, the technical train has already passed, the tracks are being tested. The subway is settling in stations, people seem to be starting to get used to their jobs.

Marat Khusnullin, deputy mayor in the Moscow government for urban policy and construction, promised that passengers would soon travel on this section of the metro.

Five stations are being prepared for launch: Delovoy Tsentr, Shelepikha, Khoroshevskaya, CSKA and Petrovsky Park. Now residents of the north-west of Moscow will not need to make two transfers on the Koltsevaya line in order to get to the neighboring radial branch. The opening of the first section of the interchange circuit will halve travel time.

On the day, the CSKA station will receive more than 100 thousand passengers, and the Petrovsky Park station will receive almost a quarter of a million.

Next year, 5 more stations will be opened, and by 2020 the second ring of the Moscow metro will be completely closed.

Five stations of the next (already the third in a row) Circle Line of the Moscow Metro were promised by the City Day (by the beginning of September 2017). But in the fall, only the mayor was allowed to ride, and passengers were allowed to enter the station today, February 26.

1. Five stations, let's talk a little about each.

Let's start with "Petrovsky Park". It is clear from the name that the station is located near the Dynamo stadium, but there is no transition to the metro station of the same name yet. It's just being built. So you need to exit, walk ten steps (literally) and enter again.

2. Here.

3. Stained-glass windows, Petrovsky Travel Palace can be recognized.

4. These guys in the center are machinists.

5. Today is that rare day when they are the main stars in the media.

6. The color scheme of the station is black and white, strict and ascetic.

8. This transition is being completed, the builders are running around. The station will be with mezzanines, with a second floor, as it were (like "Komsomolskaya-radial").

9. Pay attention to the columns, at four stations out of five (except "Business Center") they are of this style. Some are truncated.

10. Passengers don't waste time.

11. Moving on. The information board in the cars is quite bizarre, there are two lines on it. The point is that after "Shelepikha" some of the trains go to a standstill "Business center", and part goes to the new Solntsevskaya line, to the section "Victory Park" - "Ramenki".

Despite the eternal antagonism of Moscow sports clubs, the next station "CSKA".

12. And the first thing that catches your eye is the size of the letters. They were not greedy, they smashed four letters all over the wall.

13. The train arrives, the uncle-builder takes off.

14. Due to the dust, a funny optical effect is obtained: the headlights of the train have a completely visible light beam.

15. The second striking feature of this particular station is the sculptures-figures of four athletes. And a painted ceiling.

16. Hockey player. It seems to be anonymous, although there is something from Evgeny Petrov.

17. Skier with a huge star on her chest.

18. Dust, dust, dust all around.

19. Basketball player: and everyone knows what it is Viktor Khryapa. I note that not every famous person has a monument erected during his lifetime, and even in such a crowded and sought-after place.

20. Pay attention, the line has two colors! Some kind of blue and yellow vest.

21. And the fourth, last figure is a football player. Also anonymous, but I would like to think that this is Grigory Fedotov.

22. Pictures from the ceiling (example). Artistic merit is average.

23. It is gratifying to see such nice photographers.

24. The following explanations about forklifts hang in the cars.

25. The first passengers.

26. They understand what the Moscow metro builders have accumulated.

27. Our train arrived at the station Khoroshevskaya.

28. General view. Pay attention to some shiny cylinders, I have no idea what this is. Ventilation?

29. Today, machinists graze in general at every station. They train on the first passengers, hehehehehe.

30. And again I pay attention to the style of the columns.

31. And so the "centipede" Brezhnev straight.

32. Of the entire section, this station has the most attractive workers.

33. There is no ceiling over the tracks, but some kind of chaos.

34. Good photo, the young man turned out well.

36. "Shelepikha". There is a fork here, do you see the scoreboard hanging on top? You need to figure out exactly where the train will go.

37. The station itself is in cheerful black and yellow colors. I just don’t understand who on the first day managed to trample on cement like that.

38. Nobody knows or understands anything yet. Reference comes in handy.

39. Shooting from behind a column.

40. An extremely thorough gentleman, who, it seems to me, is similar to my respected friend vedmed1969.

41. We will add more beautiful passengers.

43. Some groups are directly photographed.

44. Students apparently.

45. We are going in great company!

46. ​​Station "Business center"- the most inconspicuous. In fact, I didn’t even understand - is the station old or new?

47. Everything is so shiny, dull and even scary.

48. I want to unsee it and forget it.

49. And someone has a job.

50. Uncles from the metropolitan special service to help all sorts of people with disabilities (“short-mobility citizens”) were sewn just such a fashionable uniform.

51. Ticket offices at the new Shelepikha station.

52. And in it I got hold of a set of such tickets.

That's all for today. In a week we are waiting for three more stations. As you understand, not such miracles happen before the elections.
