Maryina Roshcha is a deep-laid pylon station on an island-type platform. On the basis of the new BCL station, a large transport interchange hub (TIH) will be developed: passengers will be able to transfer not only to the same-name station of the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line, but also onto MCD-2.
The overall construction completion of the north-eastern section of the Big Metro Circle is 86%. In addition to Maryina Roshcha, it includes the Sokolniki and Rizhskaya stations under construction, a connecting line to the Nizhegorodskoye electric depot, as well as the already built Aviamotornaya, Lefortovo, Elektrozavodskaya stations, temporarily functioning as a part of the Nekrasovskaya metro line”, reminded Yuri Kravtsov.
Today, Sergei Sobyanin, Mayor of Moscow, inspected the construction progress of the Maryina Roshcha station on the BCL. “The Maryina Roshcha station is one of the most difficult ones in the north-eastern section of the Big Circle. It tops the three deepest stations in Moscow, with the longest escalator – up to 130 metres. One of the largest concourses in the Moscow Metro is built”, said Sobyanin.
It is noteworthy, that the Big Circle Line is the world’s largest metro construction project. The length of the BCL, with 31 stations and 3 electric depots, will reach 70 km, including the existing Kakhovskaya-Kashirskaya section. By the end of 2021, 22 stations were already in operation. The Circle is 90% ready, all the tunnels are driven.
