New development strategy: St. Petersburg plans to expand the metro by 16 stations

St. Petersburg metro will get 16 new stations by 2035

The authorities of the Northern Capital have presented an ambitious draft strategy of socio-economic development, which clearly outlines the priority tasks for the coming decade. One of the key goals will be a significant expansion of the metro network: according to plans, by 2035 St. Petersburg's “subway” will be enriched with 16 new stations.

The document emphasizes that one of the main problems of the “city on the Neva” is the mismatch between the dynamics of metro development and the growing needs of citizens, as well as the lack of direct transport links between Pulkovo Airport, the historic center of the city and railway stations.

In this regard, it is planned to intensify the pace of construction of new metro stations in densely populated areas and areas of concentrated business activity, Rosbalt writes.

According to the provisions of the strategy, by the end of 2030 in St. Petersburg it is planned to put into operation 10 new stations, including “Kazakovskaya”, “Putilovskaya”, “Bogatyrskaya”, “Kamenka”, “Bronevaya”, “Zastavskaya”, “Borovaya”, ‘Karetnaya’ and “Ligovsky Prospekt-2”.

Meanwhile, it became known where you can go in St. Petersburg next weekend, and Smolny is waiting for a large-scale repair of the roof for 320 million rubles.
