Fast, reliable, comfortable, growing in the same rhythm with the capital, the Moscow Metro is more than transportation. It is an invaluable architectural monument and the pride of many generations of residents.

Sergei Sobyanin noted that people in the metro make dates and declare love, read books and have time to nap before work. In the cars, dreams and plans are born, which sometimes determine the rest of a person’s life. The metro helps you catch important appointments and gently brings you home.

Since 2011, 123 stations have been built and reconstructed. Millions of Muscovites now have convenient routes.

“And this is not the end, but just another stage in the history of the best transportation in the world. Happy holiday, friends, happy 90 th anniversary of the Moscow Metro!” Sergei Sobyanin emphasized.
