The construction of the Moscow city railway station Begovaya continues on the border of the Khoroshevsky and Presnensky districts. As of today, its readiness exceeds 62 percent. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.
In 2019, Begovaya station became part of the first Moscow Central Diameter (MCD-1) "Belorussko-Savelovsky" and was improved, but the rapidly growing passenger flow required large-scale reconstruction.
"After the completion of the work, the modern Moscow city station Begovaya will improve transport accessibility for more than 200 thousand residents and those who work in the Begovaya, Khoroshevsky, Presnensky districts. The first stage of construction is almost complete thanks to the round-the-clock work of specialists. Roofing and finishing works are currently underway. The reconstruction of this transport hub also stimulates active residential and non-residential development, and in connection with this, population growth in the surrounding areas. Thus, by 2030, the number of residents and jobs within transport accessibility will increase by 40 percent and will amount to 280 thousand," said Maxim Liksutov.
The construction of the Moscow city railway station began in December 2022. The total development area is 12.2 thousand square meters. The specialists of JSC Russian Railways are reconstructing the complex railway junction in conditions of dense urban development and intensive railway traffic. The work is carried out using a unique technology without stopping transport communications.
After the reconstruction is completed, the station will have two coastal and one island platforms, as well as a three-story heated overground concourse. It will be connected underground to the existing western vestibule of the Begovaya metro station.
Today, active construction of platforms and an above-ground vestibule is underway. Specialists have already completed the installation of the roof over the escalators and concourse and are covering these areas with a fire-retardant composition. A vertical folded roof is being installed over the platforms. In addition, their glazing and installation of lighting systems are ongoing. This year, it is planned to fully complete finishing work on the platforms, the installation of the facade of the bridge section and the southern vestibule of the concourse.
The next stage will see the construction of a northern vestibule, which will be integrated with the metro. The transfer will take place in a warm circuit and will take no more than one minute. In addition, a cross-platform transfer between the Moscow Central Diameters will appear here.
Reconstruction work has begun at the Pererva MCD-2 station
After the completion of the work, a modern Moscow hub will appear on the site of the outdated station, which no longer met the standards of capital transport. It will unite MCD-1, MCD-4 and the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya metro line, as well as ground transport.
