Testing of the train, based on the domestic "Moscow-2024" model, is being conducted without passengers. A driver is present in the cabin for monitoring and as required by law. During the tests, the specialist did not interfere with the system's operation even once, proving its reliability and safety.
The innovative train has already covered more than 1,000 km along the Big Circle Line.
Software for trains, infrastructure, scheduling, and dispatching was developed and supported by specialists from the Center for Research and Development of Unmanned Transport.
The software automatically accelerates and brakes the train smoothly, and also opens and closes doors at stations.
The system instantly sends a signal to the train about the appearance of foreign objects on the tracks.
The program also monitors movement intervals.
The technology will be tested in several stages. By the end of this year, the driverless train will begin regular passenger-free service along the Big Circle Line alongside other trains, adhering to the standard Moscow Metro intervals of 90 seconds during peak hours.
We plan to begin the first passenger trips in 2027, and launch the first driverless metro line by 2030.
