The station under construction on the Big Circle Line "Nizhnyaya Maslovka". At the moment, the section "Petrovsky Park - Nizhnyaya Maslovka" is 55% ready. A large transfer hub will be created near the new station, providing a transfer from the metro to surface transport and the first line of the Moscow Central Diameters (MTsD-1). Read about when the station will open in the material of the Moscow 24 portal.
The deepest on the Grand Ring
At the end of the year, the Nizhnyaya Maslovka station of the Big Circle Line (BKL) will open its doors to passengers. It will become the deepest station on the Big Ring - 65 meters underground.
The station will be located on the site between the stations "Petrovsky Park" and the promising station "Sheremetyevskaya", under the Butyrskaya Zastava square. Exits will be made on both sides of Butyrskaya Street and to the railway platforms of Savelovsky Station. Now "Lower Maslovka" is almost completed. Mining work was completed there, waterproofing was carried out in the escalator tunnels. Now they are pumping concrete and isolating the main tunnels and setting up engineering systems. Finishing work will begin very soon: the lobbies will be lined with gray and white marble and black granite.
The station will be able to "pass" through itself in the morning and evening peak hours of almost 30 thousand people per hour.
In addition, at the Nizhnyaya Maslovka station there will be a turnaround siding for trains running on the first section of the Big Circle Line from Delovoy Tsentr to Petrovsky Park. At stations with deadlocks, turnover is carried out during the day, and trains settle at night, as well as the parking of the so-called hot reserve for emergency replacement of trains on the line during peak hours.
To help "Savelovskaya"
The metro station "Nizhnyaya Maslovka" will become part of the TPU "Savelovskaya", which will provide a transfer between two metro lines, Savelovsky station and ground public transport.

The TPU will include an underground pedestrian crossing, platforms for boarding and disembarking passengers and ground transport stops, parking for 31 parking spaces. It is planned to reconstruct the area of Savelovsky Station and the road network, including the improvement of the adjacent territory. In the future, opposite the Savelovsky railway station, it is planned to build a hotel complex for 180 rooms with underground parking for 60 places.
Now Savelovsky Station is the only one in Moscow that serves only electric trains. At least 35,000 passengers arrive here daily from Lobnya, Dmitrov, Dubna, Savelovo, Mozhaisk, and Zvenigorod. Due to the huge passenger traffic, the Savelovskaya station is under a heavy load.
Also, "Nizhnyaya Maslovka" will be a transfer point for passengers of the Moscow Central Diameters, where "Moskva-Butyrskaya" will become one of the stopping points of the MCD-1 "Odintsovo - Lobnya".
Big circle line
This year, passengers will be able to travel along the first section of the Big Circle Metro Line (BKL). Within the next two months, a section from the Delovoy Tsentr station to the Petrovsky Park station will be opened for passengers, including five stations: Delovoy Tsentr, Khoroshevskaya, CSKA, Shelepikha, and Petrovsky Park. By the end of the year, traffic will be allowed to the Nizhnyaya Maslovka station.
The launch of traffic along the new ring in the north-west of the capital will make it easier to move around the city for residents of the Khoroshevsky, Airport, Timiryazevsky, Presnensky and Savelovsky districts. And the travel time from the "Business Center" to "Savelovskaya" will be reduced by almost 2 times - from 30 to 15 minutes.
The entire length of the new ring is 68.2 kilometers. Thus, BKL can become the longest circular metro line in the world. The construction of the ring is planned to be completed in the next three years.
Yesterday there were 212 stations in the Moscow metro - the long-awaited section of the future Big Circle Line "Petrovsky Park - Business Center" was opened. I went and looked at everything. I decided this time to write about each station separately, not to dump it in one post. Let's start from the new terminal - from the Petrovsky Park station.
At the end of the 2000s, the projected station was named "Petrovsky Park" - in honor of the nearby park. As for the timing of the opening, they are constantly changing. Named consecutively 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017. The year 2018 was also mentioned vaguely - about a month ago, out of curiosity, I climbed to find out when this site could open. I read that "at the beginning of the year or in the spring" and calmed down on this. I learned about the discovery quite by accident, from the news feeds. It turned out to be such a pleasant surprise.
1. Arriving at Dynamo, I find out that the underground passage to the new station is not yet working. So far, the only way to get to Petrovsky Park from the green line is to go to the surface on the Dynamo, walk 20 meters and go from the street to Petrovsky Park.
At the same time, a new trip is not removed, on the turnstiles, as at the MCC, the word "change" lights up. The attendants at the turnstiles explained to me that this would happen if half an hour had passed since the last entry into the subway. I wonder if I'm going from "Novoyasenevskaya" or "Zyablikovo", from some station, from where it takes longer than 30 minutes, then what - should I pay again? What to do? How to be?
I want to note right away that the lobbies of the new stations are cool. The nearby Petrovsky Travel Palace is depicted here, on Khoroshevskaya - the theme of constructivism, on Shelepikha - cool pictures. I'll show you everything
2. Although the station is shallow (25 meters), it has escalators. The trees above them, apparently, should remind you of a park. Looks good
3. In general, there is enough confusion at the new stations so far. Many are stunned by the presence of two lines at the stations at once, someone does not understand the fork traffic: when which train goes to the "Business Center", and when to "Ramenki". That's about the transition from the “Dynamo” hung a clarifying scheme. These are in almost every car.
4. The station itself is quite laconic, strict and everyday, there are no special frills here. It cannot be compared with neighboring CSKA, but we'll talk about it later.
The appearance is similar to neighboring stations, but differs in gamma. The greenish color was chosen according to the color of the Zamoskvoretskaya line, to which there is a transfer from here
Almost 4 years ago it looked like this. I visited the construction of "Petrovsky Park" in the early stages, post here 
5. If we talk about the stages of construction, then 2014-2015 is the time of sinking both tunnels by tunneling complexes. By November 2016, the lining of the track walls was completed, and in September 2017, the first train ran the tracks from the Business Center to Petrovsky Park
6. Pointer
7. Still, it is unusual to see two lines at once in Moscow at one station. Reminds me of the subways of European cities. As I said, some of the passengers are still confused. By the way, why are screens with information about where the next train goes only on Shelepikha? Haven't seen it anywhere else
However, they don't plan to stay like this forever. The big ring will eventually go the other way after Khoroshevskaya, the Shelepikha-Delovoi Tsentr section will become a new line, the yellow one will probably also go through the center in the future.
It is also interesting whether the yellow line will be temporarily extended further than Petrovsky Park, towards Nizhnyaya Maslovka?
8. Transition to Dynamo. For now, as I said, closed. When it opens, no one can really tell me. Who knows, explain
There is less and less time left before the launch of a new branch - the first stage of the TPK, (a new metro ring) from the Petrovsky Park station to the Business Center. Five new stations and 10 km of tunnels are being prepared to receive the first passengers. However, the exact opening date has not yet been announced, but judging by the readiness to wait, there is not much left to wait.
1. Let's start with Petrovsky Park. With the completion of the construction of this station, Theater Alley, which was previously occupied by the construction site, will be completely opened for traffic. Somewhat strange kerning in writing.
2. Cash hall and turnstiles. The black room is an area for additional screening of passengers.
3. The station will have two underground vestibules with exits to both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt, to Petrovsky Park and the Dynamo Stadium.
4. It is expected that the passenger traffic will exceed 245 thousand people per day, in the morning and evening peak hours it will be 24.5 thousand people per hour.
6. Let's go down to the platform.
7. Next to the station is the Petrovsky Travel Palace of the 18th century, so the architects decided to include it in the design.
8. This is how the platform looked in April of this year.
11. White-green scale was used in the decoration. The floor is tiled with gray and black granite slabs, the track walls - with white marble.
15. The construction of the second stage of the TPK from Petrovsky Park to Nizhnyaya Maslovka, 1.9 km long, is planned to be completed in 2018. In the meantime, Petrovsky Park will be the final one, so we are moving towards the CSKA station, which is located on the territory of Khodynskoye Pole on the site of the former Frunze Central Airfield. One of the exits from the station will lead to the Megasport Sports Palace, one of the largest sports facilities in Moscow. The new station will help spectators to easily get to the sports complex, and will also provide residents of nearby houses around Khodynskoye Pole with an accessible metro.
Soon life on Khodynka will become much more pleasant. Instead of the usual construction, a metro station and a chic park will appear.
16. The main difference between "CSKA" and all the stations of the Moscow subway is the tricky escalator descent to the platform. Imagine that you are on the 4th floor of a mall and you need to go outside. To do this, you need to ride three times on the escalator, moving from one to another.
17. Despite the relatively large laying depth (28 meters), structurally, "CSKA" is a shallow station. I don’t understand what exactly caused such an architectural solution with escalators.
20. According to the new fire safety requirements, all TPK stations are equipped with a smoke exhaust system, which is a special column at both ends of the platform.
21. At the end of the platform, 4 sensors are installed that send a certain signal, which is reflected from the mirror and returned to the camera. Thus, the transparency of the optical medium is determined, based on this information, the system concludes that there is no smoke.
22. The design of the station contains references to the Central Army Sports Club, after which it is named. The main colors at the station are red and blue. On the platform there are bronze sculptures of a skier, a basketball player, a hockey player and a football player.
23. Decorative images dedicated to various sports are applied to the ceiling.
27. We are moving towards Khoroshevskaya. It is planned that the Khoroshevskaya - CSKA - Petrovsky Park section will significantly relieve ground transport traffic between the Zamoskvoretskaya and Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya lines.
28. On the way, we met sad TV people: “Turn around, there is no picture at the station. Start-up and adjustment works are underway, the lighting on the platform has been turned off. Pitch darkness". But I don’t have a video, but only a photo, and besides, there are special flashlights!
30. The station will have two underground vestibules and a transition to Polezhaevskaya. The eastern vestibule will be decorated with compositions in the spirit of the works of Kazimir Malevich and his followers, the western one - in the constructivist style.
31. Shooting without light is a long process, and lunch is on schedule, so we move on. Driving towards "Shelepikha".
32. Shelepikha is located along the MCC line and has two underground vestibules with exits to Shmitovsky proezd and Shelepikhinskoye highway.
34. On the basis of the station, a transport interchange hub will be organized, thanks to which it will be possible to transfer to the MCC station of the same name without going outside, as well as transfer to buses.
35. The dominant colors in the decoration of the station are white, yellow and black.
36. The projects of all the stations of the new line are very similar to each other, and differ mainly only due to the color design and finishing materials.
42. And a small excursion to the premises that are hidden from the eyes of the passenger. The traction step-down substation (TPP) is used to convert alternating current into direct current with a voltage of 825 V to the contact rail necessary for the movement of electric trains (traction, blue cabinets) ...
43. ... and to lower the voltage (hence the name traction-step-down) of alternating current to 380, 220 and 127 V, necessary for various station services (escalators, station lighting, ventilation, pumps, and so on). These are white cabinets.
44. Lungs of a smoker and a healthy person. On one wall of the tunnel there is a "low side" with a voltage of 220 and 127 V, track boxes for service personnel with sockets for all kinds of angle grinders, automatic telemechanics for train traffic, water supply, fiber optics, and a sound warning system. From the "high side", where the contact rail passes, there are cables of a larger diameter. On this side there are also track boxes, but already at 380 V for more serious equipment, which is usually rolled on trolleys - for example, a grinder or a mixer. Permanent and emergency lighting systems run on both sides of the tunnel.
45. This is how it looks in the finished tunnel. From above "under the ceiling" there is a radio communication of the drivers. Bottom tray for collecting water.
46. Pumping station for pumping water into storm sewers. Can easily send "up" a small underground river.
48. This is what a standard travel box looks like. Whose cables? Who is the manufacturer?" - I asked an electrician who was finishing the installation of the next track box. - “Whose, whose? Kazan, of course. There are no others here." (See the report from the production of cables in the suburbs of Kazan:)
49. Megaphone of the sound warning system (not to be confused with a cellular operator).
50. Scheme of the entire TPK, the length of which will be 66 kilometers. With the advent of TPK, some passengers will no longer need to go to the center for a transfer. This will not only reduce travel time, but also free up the congested city center. Today, many passengers have to go to the Circle Line, make two transfers to get to the stations located on the neighboring radial line. The opening of the TPK should solve this problem. For example, the journey from Sokolniki to Elektrozavodskaya will be reduced from 30 minutes to 5.
51. The general contractor for the site is Mosinzhproekt, and almost all construction work was carried out by Ingeocom. Thanks to the guides for the tour!
52. We are waiting for new stations!

Those who follow the development of the Moscow Metro know that a second circle line is currently under construction, which will be called the Third Interchange Circuit. Completely erect a branch, they promise by 2018. Of course, stations are opening gradually, starting in 2015. At the moment, we are interested in Petrovsky Park, and we will analyze in more detail all its nuances related to construction and opening. The name does not contain any secrets and is given by the nearest park area.
Where is the new metro station Petrovsky Park
Many are wondering where the new station is located. As previously mentioned, it will be part of the third interchange circuit, and is located in the interval "CSKA" - "". The exits will be conveniently located for passengers - they are located on both sides of Leningradsky Prospekt. - one will lead to the stadium, the other to the park area. By the way, at the moment, Dynamo is closed for reconstruction, and in the past it was considered the largest metropolitan stadium.
Metro "Petrovsky Park" is very beneficial for both residents of the capital and surrounding areas. A large number of residents of the Moscow region will use this station when traveling to work. In general, according to preliminary calculations, Petrovsky Park will make life easier for 100,000 citizens. By the way, the approximate planned passenger flow is approximately 250 thousand passengers / day, and during the busiest hours - 25 thousand people / hour.
The station will have an underpass and a transfer to the Dynamo station, equipped with an escalator. But the hydrogeological situation is forcing the opening of the metro, and in particular the transition, to be postponed until the end of 2018.
In terms of the architectural solution, Petrovsky Park will be typical, the difference lies in the color schemes. The green color scheme will coincide with the Zamoskvoretskaya line. The platforms will be decorated with black and gray granite, and the track walls will be finished with white marble. Green marble was chosen for the main columns. In view of the nearest location of the Petrovsky Palace, its images will fit into the design. Stained glass windows will complement the pleasant atmosphere of the lobbies and escalators.
When will the Petrovsky Park metro station open in Moscow - latest news
If you are wondering when the Petrovsky Park metro station will open, we offer you a short chronology. Full-fledged construction began in the fall of 2014, when a tunnel-boring complex was installed - its “duties” include the creation of a distillation tunnel to Nizhnyaya Maslovka. Its length is approximately 2 km. In the winter of the following year, the right distillation tunnel was passed, which goes from CSKA. By January 2016, all the main works were completed, and the builders began to equip the junction with Dynamo.
In the autumn of the same year, they began to finish the columns - by that time the construction of the track walls had been completed. In September 2017, the first train run-in was carried out between Delovoy Tsentr and Petrovsky Park. Due to difficulties during the construction of the Petrovsky Park station in Moscow, the latest news says that the opening of the metro is planned for the end of 2017 - the beginning of 2018. Residents of the capital and surrounding areas are looking forward to this event, because. they will be able to come to and from work an hour and a half faster than before.
Five stations of the next (already the third in a row) Circle Line of the Moscow Metro were promised by the City Day (by the beginning of September 2017). But in the fall, only the mayor was allowed to ride, and passengers were allowed to enter the station today, February 26.
1. Five stations, let's talk a little about each.
Let's start with "Petrovsky Park". It is clear from the name that the station is located near the Dynamo stadium, but there is no transition to the metro station of the same name yet. It's just being built. So you need to exit, walk ten steps (literally) and enter again.
2. Here.
3. Stained-glass windows, Petrovsky Travel Palace can be recognized.
4. These guys in the center are machinists.
5. Today is that rare day when they are the main stars in the media.
6. The color scheme of the station is black and white, strict and ascetic.
8. This transition is being completed, the builders are running around. The station will be with mezzanines, with a second floor, as it were (like "Komsomolskaya-radial").
9. Pay attention to the columns, at four stations out of five (except "Business Center") they are of this style. Some are truncated.
10. Passengers don't waste time.
11. Moving on. The information board in the cars is quite bizarre, there are two lines on it. The point is that after "Shelepikha" some of the trains go to a standstill "Business center", and part goes to the new Solntsevskaya line, to the section "Victory Park" - "Ramenki".
Despite the eternal antagonism of Moscow sports clubs, the next station "CSKA".
12. And the first thing that catches your eye is the size of the letters. They were not greedy, they smashed four letters all over the wall.
13. The train arrives, the uncle-builder takes off.
14. Due to the dust, a funny optical effect is obtained: the headlights of the train have a completely visible light beam.
15. The second striking feature of this particular station is the sculptures-figures of four athletes. And a painted ceiling.
16. Hockey player. It seems to be anonymous, although there is something from Evgeny Petrov.
17. Skier with a huge star on her chest.
18. Dust, dust, dust all around.
19. Basketball player: and everyone knows what it is Viktor Khryapa. I note that not every famous person has a monument erected during his lifetime, and even in such a crowded and sought-after place.
20. Pay attention, the line has two colors! Some kind of blue and yellow vest.
21. And the fourth, last figure is a football player. Also anonymous, but I would like to think that this is Grigory Fedotov.
22. Pictures from the ceiling (example). Artistic merit is average.
23. It is gratifying to see such nice photographers.
24. The following explanations about forklifts hang in the cars.
25. The first passengers.
26. They understand what the Moscow metro builders have accumulated.
27. Our train arrived at the station Khoroshevskaya.
28. General view. Pay attention to some shiny cylinders, I have no idea what this is. Ventilation?
29. Today, machinists graze in general at every station. They train on the first passengers, hehehehehe.
30. And again I pay attention to the style of the columns.
31. And so the "centipede" Brezhnev straight.
32. Of the entire section, this station has the most attractive workers.
33. There is no ceiling over the tracks, but some kind of chaos.
34. Good photo, the young man turned out well.
36. "Shelepikha". There is a fork here, do you see the scoreboard hanging on top? You need to figure out exactly where the train will go.
37. The station itself is in cheerful black and yellow colors. I just don’t understand who on the first day managed to trample on cement like that.
38. Nobody knows or understands anything yet. Reference comes in handy.
39. Shooting from behind a column.
40. An extremely thorough gentleman, who, it seems to me, is similar to my respected friend vedmed1969.
41. We will add more beautiful passengers.
43. Some groups are directly photographed.
44. Students apparently.
45. We are going in great company!
46. Station "Business center"- the most inconspicuous. In fact, I didn’t even understand - is the station old or new?
47. Everything is so shiny, dull and even scary.
48. I want to unsee it and forget it.
49. And someone has a job.
50. Uncles from the metropolitan special service to help all sorts of people with disabilities (“short-mobility citizens”) were sewn just such a fashionable uniform.
51. Ticket offices at the new Shelepikha station.
52. And in it I got hold of a set of such tickets.
That's all for today. In a week we are waiting for three more stations. As you understand, not such miracles happen before the elections.
