To do this, specialists conduct environmental monitoring of air, ground and surface water, and soil analysis. All samples are examined in independent laboratories. Most often, such testing is used when tunneling, which affects the territories of national parks or protected areas. Thus, it was carried out during the construction of the Big Ring Line (BCL), when tunnel boring machines worked under the territories of nature conservation areas and repeatedly crossed the water area of the Moscow River.

After work, builders remove and dispose of all waste, including soil. For example, at the ZIL station Trinity line To create the pits and reversible culverts, it was necessary to remove a total of almost 400 thousand cubic meters of earth.

After the work is completed, green spaces are restored. Thus, more than 600 bushes and trees will be planted near the Stolbovo electric depot, and about 1.4 thousand in TiNAO. Among the already implemented projects, one can highlight the improvement of the adjacent territory of the Kuntsevskaya station of the Big Circle Line. Almost 300 trees and 2.5 thousand bushes were planted here – a new park for citizens to relax appeared.

"We minimize harm to the animal world. For example, trees and bushes are cut down before the nesting period. Grass is not burned and chemical reagents are not used," added Sergei Sobyanin.

All these measures help to avoid negative impacts on the environment and the health of construction workers, passengers and metro personnel.
