As the press service of the head of state reported, in recent years, underground and overground metro lines have been put into operation in Tashkent, which has created even more convenience for passengers. In continuation of this work, it is planned to build an underground metro line from the Buyuk Ipak Yuli station to the Tashkent Tractor Plant (TTZ) block, as well as to implement the second stage of the construction of the aboveground ring metro.

During the presentation, the relevant project proposals were considered. Thus, two options for laying an underground line are being worked out – through Mirzo Ulugbek Street or Buyuk Ipak Yuli Street. According to preliminary estimates, in the first case, the length of the line will be 8.6 kilometers, carrying capacity – 62,000 passengers per day. In the second option, the length of the route will be 8 kilometers, carrying capacity – 55,000 people per day. The construction work is expected to last 5 years.

The second stage of the overground metro provides for the laying of more than 11 kilometers of elevated tracks from the Kuylyuk block to station No. 5 of the Sergeli line. It is planned that the line will consist of seven stations, with a capacity of 38,000 passengers per day.

A project was also presented to expand the overpass from Babur Street to the Islam Karimov Tashkent International Airport with the construction of a ring-shaped bypass bridge.

During the presentation, the technical-economic aspects of these projects were discussed, the head of state made recommendations for finalizing the projects in terms of convenience, safety and quality.
