By 2028, the Moscow public transportation system plans to integrate at least 30 percent of the current suburban ground transportation routes. This will improve passenger comfort on interregional routes and provide an additional impetus to the development of transport infrastructure in Moscow and the Moscow region. This work will include installing modern bus shelters, developing dedicated lanes, creating new and reconstructing existing transport hubs, and increasing the popularity of public transportation for daily travel between the Moscow region and Moscow.

Sergei Sobyanin announced plans for metro construction in the coming years.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Moscow is actively building and opening new metro lines and stations. Sergei Sobyanin on my blog summed up the work and announced plans for the future.

"The New Year holidays are just days away, time to take stock of 2025 and make plans for 2026. I'll start with the metro, where many important developments have taken place," the Moscow Mayor wrote.

Trinity Line

In September, construction of the first stage of the Troitskaya Line, a 27-kilometer line with 11 stations and five transfer hubs, was completed. Commuting has become more convenient for hundreds of thousands of Muscovites living in the southwest and the New Moscow.

At the same time, the city began the second phase of construction on the Troitskaya Line. Its southern section will include six stations: Sosenki, Rakitki, Desna, Kedrovaya, Vatutinki, and Troitsk.

When the 43-kilometer Emerald Line is fully operational in 2029, it will make transportation more accessible to nearly two million people.

Rublevo-Arkhangelskaya line

Construction of the new Rublevo-Arkhangelskaya metro line is in its active phase. Service is planned to open next year from Delovoy Tsentr station to Bulvar Generala Karbysheva.

The first 8.7-kilometer launch section will include five stations: Delovoy Tsentr, Shelepikha, Zvenigorodskaya, Narodnoye Opolchenie, and Bulvar Generala Karbysheva.

"The Delovoy Tsentr and Shelepikha stations previously operated on the Big Circle Line. To integrate them into the new radius, the tunnels were widened from six to 10 meters and a connection was made with the new section. Due to difficult geological conditions, a portion of the route from Zvenigorodskaya (approximately 350 meters) was dug using the Sofia shield, and the metro builders dug almost the same distance using small tunnel boring machines, hand-held drills, and other low-mechanization equipment," noted Sergei Sobyanin.

Five more stations on the graphite metro line—Serebryany Bor, Strogino, Lipovaya Roshcha, Rublevo-Arkhangelskoye, and Ilyinskaya—will open in 2027.

Including the planned Krasnogorsk and Izumrudnye Kholmy stations, the Rublevo-Arkhangelskaya metro line will stretch nearly 28 kilometers—from Moscow-City to Krasnogorsk in the Moscow region. This line will feature 12 stations.

Construction of the enclosing structure for the excavation pit of the future Vatutinki metro station has begun.Construction workers have completed excavation work for the ZIL station on the Biryulevskaya metro line.

Biryulevskaya line

A significant event of the past summer was the start of construction of the Biryulevskaya metro line.

The first section will include four stations. Construction is currently underway on the ZIL, Ostrov Mechty, and Klenovy Bulvar stations. Work on Kuryanovo will begin soon. These stations will welcome their first passengers in 2028.

In another year, the Moskvorechye, Luganskaya, Kaspiyskaya, Lipetskaya, Lebedyanskaya, and Biryulevo stations on the new metro line will open. Construction will begin soon.

The metro will reach the Biryulyovo Zapadnoye and Biryulyovo Vostochnoye districts for the first time, making transportation more accessible for hundreds of thousands of Muscovites. The Biryulyovskaya Line will stretch 22.2 kilometers and have 10 stations.

Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya line and new stations

The Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya metro line extension began this summer. The opening of the Golyanovo station is scheduled for 2028.

In 2030, two new stations will appear on the Moscow metro map on existing lines: Yuzhny Port (on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line) and Dostoyevskaya (on the Circle Line).

Construction of Dostoyevskaya, the first new station on the Circle Line in over 70 years, is in its active phase: it is 40 percent complete. The station's opening will improve transport accessibility to three central Moscow districts—Meshchansky, Tverskoy, and Maryina Roshcha.

The Yuzhny Port station is at the design stage.

Construction of an electric depot

To service the new metro trains, two depots, Stolbovo and Yuzhnoye, were opened in 2025.

Stolbovo, the first electric depot in the Troitsky and Novomoskovsky administrative districts, serves the Troitskaya line and will later switch to the Sokolnicheskaya line.

The Yuzhnoye depot, intended for the Zamoskvoretskaya line, together with the previously commissioned Brateevo depot, formed the largest complex in the country for the maintenance and repair of carriages.

In the coming years, they plan to build three more electric depots: Ilyinskoye (in 2027 for the Rublevo-Arkhangelskaya line), as well as Troitskoye and Biryulevskoye, the opening of which is scheduled for 2029.

Improvement of adjacent territories

Along with the construction of transport infrastructure in the capital, areas adjacent to stations are being improved. For example, this year, work was carried out near four new stations on the Troitskaya metro line.

A section of the park between the Rasskazovka and Pykhtino stations on the Solntsevskaya Line has been landscaped. Around 150 trees and over 1,300 shrubs have been planted, over five thousand square meters of lawn have been laid, pedestrian paths have been laid, and new hardscape features have been installed.

"In short, we are continuing active metro construction," the Moscow Mayor concluded.

The Stolbovo depot was connected to the power grid.More than 2.6 kilometers of metro tunnels have been laid under Moscow's rivers since 2011.Sobyanin: Construction has begun on a tunnel from Dream Island to Klenovy Boulevard.

A schedule for gas stove inspections in Moscow's residential buildings for 2026 has been published.

The schedule for gas equipment inspections in residential buildings in 2026 has been published in the capital. This was announced by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing, Utilities, and Public Works. Petr Biryukov.

"Specialists

urban economy complex "We conduct scheduled maintenance of gasified residential buildings annually, and a schedule of relevant activities for next year has already been published. During inspections, special attention is paid to the condition of in-building gas lines and gas appliances in apartments. Minor problems are corrected on the spot; if serious issues are detected, gas workers eliminate safety risks and provide recommendations for future operation and repairs," said Pyotr Biryukov.

Since November of this year, Mosgaz JSC's specialists have been using cutting-edge software. It enables the recording and processing of violations in real time. Now, when servicing a home or apartment, all data is entered into a special tablet. This includes any violations identified, photos, and the subscriber's signature on the completed briefing.

Today, approximately 1.8 million families in the capital use gas stoves. To ensure their safe operation, timely inspections are essential. Responsibility for the proper maintenance and replacement of gas equipment lies with the owner or tenant of the residential property.

The average lifespan of a gas stove is 10–12 years. After this, gas valves wear out, burner diffusers become deformed, and oven insulation becomes compromised. Maintaining the safe operation of such appliances is impossible; replacement is necessary. A gas stove must be equipped with a gas control system, which stops the flow of natural gas if the burner flame goes out.

Information about the dates and times of gas equipment inspections is posted on information boards installed in building entrances and courtyards. You can also check the information through a special online service atcompany website or inTelegram bot.

More than 1.6 million gas stoves have been inspected in Moscow since the beginning of the year.
